Discovered this group, “You know you’ve worked too long in a lab when”. Here are some ‘whens’ listed in the group recent news.

1. You wonder what absolute alcohol tastes like with orange juice

8. You’ve wondered why you can’t drink distilled water in the lab - It should be clean?

14. People wearing shorts under a lab coat disturb you slightly as they look as though they might be naked underneath

16. Safety equipment is optional unless it makes you look cool

24. As has been pointed out to me on several occasions - You can no longer spell normal words but have no trouble with spelling things like immunohistochemistry or deoxyribonucleic acid.

32. You have an irresistible urge to rip your shirt off superman stylie cos it has press stud fasteners just like your lab coat…..Most often occurring as you walk through a door just like exiting the lab….

41.Your nose invariably itches when you’re doing mucky stuff with your hands so you develop the habit of scratching it on your upper arm. Unfortunately you sometimes carry this habit over to real life, where it looks like you’re sniffing your armpits
