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*

Rar! How fucking annoying. I'd write the company a letter. The execs should know what kind of worthless chumps they're paying. It's a waste of everyone's time, particularly yours!!

I'm just full of "rars" these last couple days, it seems.

Rars are good for the soul. :)

But yes - I'd love to give the feller who runs the analytical division a good talking-to, but they don't communicate with us at all except with it is a Total Crisis. Not very helpful.

And as pipeandslippers noted, the tech is probably trying to protect his job. Perhaps he should learn to do his job if he wishes to keep it.
