Dilbert. Enough said.
Not too bad, for a Wednesday. Heather and I went to the Spin Lab at 10:30 to meet with Pete, one of the lab technicians that works for/with Dr. Vakili. I haven't quite figured out that work dynamic yet, but its low on my priority list right now. Pete had some good ideas about one of the tasks that we're going to be working on (the one Heather is heading up) and he didn't think my idea for my project was retarded, but then he seems really nice.
For lunch, I tried out a Hot Pocket cooked in the microwave that I brought up. It works, which was a relief. I forgot to bring plates, so I had to improvise with an empty 3-ring binder. It got the job done.
Today was my first ever Seminar. Guess who presented? Dr. Vakili. Guess what the topic was? Spinning Carbon Fibers from Pitch! Who would have guessed it?! I sure didn't see it coming. Next week is some PhD that's going to spend waaaaay too long about something. Sounds interesting.
Hopefully, I can set a certain professor straight tomorrow, and hopefully it won't require any drastic measure.

Unhappiness Is Another Word For "Not Enough Coffee"

I'm not concerned about the work dynamic between Dr. Vakili and Pete, because it's irrelevant. This has no reflection on my attitude towards work.
As for the 3 ring binder, it was there and not earning its keep otherwise.
I hope it was a CLEAN binder, not one with carbon fibers all over it!
Mom
"clean" is such a relative word.
There were no carbon fibers on it, or anything else that I could tell.
We have some plates now though, so everything's under control.
You mean I can comment!
Anytime you want.
