- A clone of myself
- A well-trained tech -or-
- A very clever monkey.
Let me explain: I have a long list of success-guaranteed experiments to do. This is better than the alternative, but if only there were two of me! I generate heaps of unanalyzed data, but I want MORE, MORE, FEED ME NOW.* And at some point- say, late at night, or possibly in my sleep, or something- the pictures must become numbers. I have no time for this. I have experiments to do.
I thought of asking for a rotation student, but I don't want one. I want someone with skills. I want a trained monkey. Where's my monkey?!?!? I want it faster! Faster! Must! Leave! Town!
Also, my eyes are blurry from moving clear liquids around all day.
*Okay, not that I'm really complaining. The memory of the Sit Alone In The Dark Crying Project is never far from my mind. This is better. Really.
