Ten Discs a Minute

Hairs get grey in spats. Overall degree of grey can vary over time, but for the most part people get more grey. They also lose their hair and go grey regardless of stress, but there is a type that comes with stress. My boss is very gray haired. I am getting there. My father lives alone and injured himself by running while being fifty something. I didnt get the memo for a day or three and he was ambulatory until surgery yesterday. Its technically doable to work and drive him to and for and for and call his insurance company to find out why he has not prescription drug coverage, and choose mutants to move forward with and talk with the boss. I have been brought under the wing so to speak. I am a person he doesnt disklike for the moment. This is a surprise, as I was getting in deep. It had been becoming longer and longer since my last confession. After figuring out again what I have been doing and taking me for my truthful word that I had told him about this weeks previously, we discussed the future.

There is nowhere to hide. The boss will always be there, I hope, as long as I need recs. The next footfall may well be your last for 3 months because your body is part of you and hopefully will be for some time. Post docs and grad students alike need live in fear that the fast flowing river of Bossman's output may well run you or anyone else down. That is, if your work looks like it can go vanity journal right now, then we are sending it, and authorship can be varied. So when a postdoc is trying to leave, or climb out of a seven year pit of carnage and dispair, things can get complicated.

The bottom line is that you have to chose your way, be honorable, and tell the boss no in some way effective enough for him to agree to your no without earning yourself two weeks in the lab pillocks. I mean being treated like the lab pillock in the lab pillory. So I dont want to encroach on the only postdoc I trust (less and less every day). I do however study a question, and have since writing my thesis proposal years ago, that she has recently become interested in and started answering. This will help this question appear legitimate, to a field that has trouble agreeing on what might be an interesting or lucrative (job creating) question to answer.

So all of a sudden, instead of the boss being cool to both of us for generally ignoring his tyrannical needs, he sees myself as an inroad to controlling her. I work on the same thing with a different method. Combine forces! Publish the paper! Get a Job! There will be more than enough for everybody!

There is little positive evidence for this here. Does a short memory pay off? Only if it frees you from pain. A consolidation process that leaves out agony works until you need to learn from displeasure. The only thing I might have on any of these people is the memory part, so Im still taking the pain.
