Microbiologist XX: Yep, it's been that kind of day.
http://microbiologistxx.blogspot.com/2011/02/yep-its-been-that-kind-of-day.html
Ramblings of a female microbiologist. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Yep, it's been that kind of day. I started the day off well enough. I woke up on time, I made myself some coffee (bonus) so that I wouldn't need to stop on the way. I get in the car and proceed to work, quite proud of the $1.50 I am saving. However, about 30 seconds later, the universe decided that today, I would provide it with comic relief or something. Not the good kind). 2 My boob is really wet and warm. Several labor-intensive sips lat...

http://microbiologistxx.blogspot.com/2011/01/friday-funny-fk-you-and-your-fcking.html
Ramblings of a female microbiologist. Thursday, January 20, 2011. Friday Funny: F* k you and your f* cking cheeseburger. I don't know if I've mentioned this before or not, but I am from Texas. Although I don't share many of the opinions and views expressed by the inhabitants of my home state, I do love the Texas fast food burger joint know as Whataburger. When I was little I thought it was water burger). Like any establishment open 24h, drunk idiots tend to congregate at Whataburger. I am a post-doctoral...

Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist: Feedback on resume - tough love
http://chall-dreams.blogspot.com/2015/08/feedback-on-resume-tough-love.html
Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist. Sciencey blog with emotions, sometimes too personal, it's venting ;). Sunday, August 02, 2015. Feedback on resume - tough love. It's always easier to look at someone else's resume or CV and critique than your own. Always. I help a lot of people with the job applications, scanning their resumes and CVs, adding a few key words, giving suggestions on how to best " present yourself in line with the ad. Kill your darlings indeed. Anyhow, I got a good slap in ...

Microbiologist XX: Dumb F**king Donkeys Strike Back
http://microbiologistxx.blogspot.com/2011/01/dumb-fking-donkeys-strike-back.html
Ramblings of a female microbiologist. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Dumb F* king Donkeys Strike Back. I’m sure this is common in many labs, departments and offices: Some dumb fucking donkey (DFD) takes advantage of a good situation and everyone suffers because the people in charge prefer punishing everyone instead of confronting the person who is actually causing the problem. These instances might include, but are not limited to the following examples. Solution: Instead of speaking to DFD, the entire lab ...

Microbiologist XX: I can't say I'm too surprised.
http://microbiologistxx.blogspot.com/2011/01/i-cant-say-im-too-surprised.html
Ramblings of a female microbiologist. Friday, January 14, 2011. I can't say I'm too surprised. I am not big on making resolutions. That's not to say that I don't make any, but they are usually the same and I tend to make them multiple times of year. Two of my on-going work resolutions are: (1) stay up to date on freezer stocks and (2) keep the lab notebook current. Haha,keeing labbook current? Yes, leaving my post doc meant a lot of gluing, rewriting and making the books really pretty.). I am a post-doct...

Microbiologist XX: More time please?!?
http://microbiologistxx.blogspot.com/2011/01/more-time-please.html
Ramblings of a female microbiologist. Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Oh I don't know. Now that I am reading what I've written, it does sound a bit crazy. You don’t seem to get a lot of writing done at work. You have to stay few hours at home to write a lame abstract. Yet you have time to post at 3.24 pm (work hours! January 12, 2011 at 6:17 PM. Having said all this, realize that I am 4 yrs later still struggling to heed my own advice. January 12, 2011 at 6:42 PM. January 12, 2011 at 6:43 PM. Prio 1 would b...

Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist: April 2014
http://chall-dreams.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist. Sciencey blog with emotions, sometimes too personal, it's venting ;). Saturday, April 12, 2014. Why you always need Plan B (and C and D). This last week I got reminded yet again why it's imperative that you always, always, have a plan B. (Yes, having a pack of Plan B - what the Americans call the "morning after pill" - at home if you are sexually active and not in the mood for offspring might also apply here.). Does come across as a fairly little threat ...

Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist: May 2015

Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist. Sciencey blog with emotions, sometimes too personal, it's venting ;). Saturday, May 16, 2015. Mixing hope with experiences. A friend and I spoke the other week about the problem with hope and experiences. You have this hope about people and situations, then you have your previous experiences that add into the situations. The notion that " previous behaviour is a prediction for future behaviour. A) want to do a good job. B) care about the job. That makes ...

Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist: June 2015
http://chall-dreams.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Dreams and hopes of a (former post doc) scientist. Sciencey blog with emotions, sometimes too personal, it's venting ;). Wednesday, June 24, 2015. Directness, rational and gooey center. Because I’m bored being the cute woman who is correct and demure. Sometimes I just feel like saying “this is F and G and you need to decide which you want”. It’s also sometimes where the indirectness makes it possible for the other person to ignore what you’re saying and do something ...I know, I’m overreacting....Just to...
