  • the professor for my CMB graduation required course navajo indian descent, had a gripe against other people that are not of his heritage, so he has a bad attitude, when hes pissed of, because of that. he dint like people contacting about lab work, experience, to protect his perceived reputation, this was the one i had to do a large project in, with alot of research, and thats where i had this annoying lab partner, who acted all elitist, bad timing. getting flak form the prof is one thing, but also getting it from a lab partner is extra irritating, other people thought it was funny, it was not.

    i was thinking is this how biotech scientists/employees act, like someones going to steal thier “work and research”?



  • i was looking at CLS, which is health/biotech adjacent, doesnt need a grad degree, but it does require half a year of grad school. turns out everyone is trying to come to the west coast to get into the school for this program, so it made it super competitive, because only 9 schools teach it, but the income in the industry is reasonablly equivalent to a pharmD degree, fraction of the cost and time spent though, but super competitive, im guessing why it so attractive for people who likely was dismayed by the biotech being so gatekept.










  • we had to collaborate alot in one of my bio classes, 1 where i had a lab partner that did all the work without consulting me, so i dint know what was going on, she dint let me do any of the measurements,or whatever. then she disappeared midway into the semester(she dint even register for the class properly and only found out halfway) so i was left alone.

    then comes the 2nd partner, who was absent most of the semester herself for health reasons. she touted as being in labs for 4 years(which she used in a rant against me), she was one of the most unhelpful people out there, she did not like the slides i was doing , and i should be doing it a certain way to make “digestible” to audience, but she would not offer any help, other than saying this or that is wrong. she was saying how she went to “talks” and conferences, she knows what she is doing, but she wouldn’t offer how she was doing her part of the slide projects. as soon as she found out grades were separate for each person. she largely stopped helping(which was just criticizing) and only would get together to combine said slides.

    later down teh line, i was thinking this btch was cutthroat asf, is biotech industry have people like this worried about thier perceived reputation so much, they would sabotage the group for thier own ends, also the PI/instructor was no help, but he has own problems, having an attitude. all the other groups in class dint have this much abrasiveness, and dint have interruptions like i did. losing 1 partner due to her being absentminded, and then gaining a btchy one.
