Job vacancy

There is a job vacancy for a research assistant in behavioural neuroscience at my university, to be working under my honours year supervisor! And he was nice, and I might have a shot worth trying for except - i don't know if i can face up to the whole experiments on rats thing anymore.

...

I'm mostly pretty sure I can't.

Hmmh.

I don't feel like I can relate to (or even stand) rich spoilt petulant clients any more; but I keep working here.

Amazing what I will do to pay the rent!

And from The Onion today:

ALBUQUERQUE, NM—Animal-intelligence researchers at Sandia National Labs have found that the best-laid plans of common laboratory mice are overwhelmingly directed toward the acquisition of cheese. "Whatever rudimentary planning skills mice possess are devoted primarily to finding cheese, and these plans are manifest in dodging predators, chewing through things, and, in specialized cases, running mazes," researcher Jack Stein said. "By contrast, the best-laid plans of men are more long-term, with the acquisition of cheese comprising one subcategory of endeavor." Stein added that both types of plans tend oft to go awry.

I think Bear's Best Laid Plans involve Cheese Acquisition more often than most men.
