trinityvixenThe folks who posited "JAFO" as an answer to my "Quel de Fuck, NG?" post from yesterday are probably closer to the money.
He just asked me if I knew anything about pipettes.
::headdesk::
Specifically? He didn't know how to read the numbers on the micropipettor so that he could pipette the amount he wanted
Maybe I should show him this:
Now, maybe that is all impenetrable nonsense to non-science folks. However, if you watch at 1:25 or so, you'll see exactly how to read a micropipette in order to select exact quantity of solution you wish to aspirate. You twist the numbers until they read, top to bottom, the number. NG was sure that it read bottom to top.
He had two weeks of training with his predecessor before he started. WTF?
