Yesterday... I found a open bottle of old and empty but with residue liquid 60% perchloric acid in the laminar flow bench....

@Birk_lab yeah I saw the line re: pipetting incorrectly. I worked with someone like that once. If they want to keep paying for someone to come out and check the machine, you can't stop them. If you were a postdoc or in a supervisory position I'd tell you to talk to the prof, but it sounds like it's not worth it. @GetzlerChem @SRLevine
@titania @GetzlerChem @SRLevine well I told QM long ago with increasing ridiculous things like having to witness that the group lead didn't change pipette tips to pipette QC 1-3.
QM always just said this needs to be dealt with inside the group and she didn't even forward it to the prof.But yes, I need to not care anymore again. We got two new and fresh lab assistants in the group and it made me want to teach them right.

@Birk_lab also just like, H2SO4 is also an oxo acid...?
God, I hope these people never work with nitric, having flashbacks to my best friend telling me about one of the physics students accidentally making nitroglycerine...
@titania xD whoops.

@GetzlerChem @titania @SRLevine yes indeed. It's a really strange pattern there though coz other than that the people from the lowest to highest are through the bench actually really really nice, without bullying or other shitty social dynamics
Still hoping www.cymanticmedical.com/ will get a cash infusion after our two main investors jumped off suddenly last summer
