I understand that corkscrew designers try to be fancy with their new products, but I don't understand why they would make such corkscrews that pushes the cork into the bottle rather than taking it out. Hence the situation above. I love my waiter's corkscrew.

So it's been 3.5th week of work for me, and I finally got to do some lab work. My boss told me that there are times in which I would have to do manual screening as opposed to using a high-throughput machine. You have no idea how excited I was, because I don't think I can sit around staring at a computer for 40 hours a week watching arms inject things onto plates.

I think my boss has had bad experiences with past interns, because he literally treats me like a retard. "Do you know that you can't use the same pipette tip for two different samples?" But then I went to a GMP training today where the instructor told a story about an intern glass cleaner (I'm sorry, it's already bad that you work in a university lab as a glass cleaner, but to work in an industry as a glass cleaner is a lot more sad), where the intern had decided to forge an entire timesheet where different people sign in because he screwed up on writing down the correct date and then proceed to deny that he forged signatures. No wonder everyone thinks interns are incompetent.

My boss also gives me the worst instructions ever. I asked him how to position my sheet of paper so I can print out labels. He told me "upside down facing in". I did that, and the labels were printed on the wrong side of the sheet, upside down.

"Notice: All entry and exit activity in this building is video recorded"
