Another Inotek-induced rant, this one with vitriol.



What is the MATTER with you people? You've been looking at the same fricking MALDI mass spec for TWO YEARS. Count them. TWO. And NOW you mail me for help with the interpretation? What the hell? Haven't you seen this same pattern umpty-eighteen times? Can't you whip out your trusty calculator and start subtracting masses? I mean... this isn't even PhD material, this is SOPHOMORE ORGANIC.

I have a THESIS to write. Someday. And because you assholes are so completely INEPT, you're making YOUR problem MY problem thanks to my advisor who thinks nothing of dumping these troubles in my lap at the slightest provocation.

And not for nothing, but your own web site touts your skills as analytical chemists!! Ummmmm... not if you can't interpret one freaking mass spectrum!

OOOOOH! It makes me so MAD! *bangs on desk in frustration*

Well... in reference to the lj-cut statement... I'm sure I'd find it interesting if I had any idea what you were talking about! ;)

No problem, I know I've been speaking jargonese lately.

All you need to really understand is that the people I've been working with don't seem to know how to do their job. :)

*nods* And that, unfortunately, is a problem encountered in every field. Universal frustration there. ;)
