Christmas wish list

Mom and boyfriend both asked me what I want for Christmas. I both told them I'll think about it.

Today's conversation with my boss cemented my decision. I want a gun. After talking to my boss today, we bring up a discussion issue that may invalidate my four years on this god damn project. The short of the discussion is that the timepoint I have been using for years has not been proven to be the most effective incubation for the materials I use.

I'm the tech - not the grad student. Which is good since techs get paid slightly more than students. But I'm supposed to do tasks as instructed. It is not my job to question the instructions. It is not my job to prove that the instructed incubation period is the most beneficial. I will setup those experiments if asked, but not to do "just because".

So guess what I'm going to have to do this week?

Too bad I can't bring a gun to work (even with a concealed weapons permit). I'd have to get through the day before I can shoot myself.

Just kidding on my reason for wanting a gun for Christmas. Still would like to have one though...a nice shiny one!
