Popular Science has published an article outling the worst jobs in science. Some of these are very disgusting, and no doubt there are those among us here who have had to endure jobs like this while working in labs, and alot of us can also look forward to these experiences as we climb the ranks of the scientific ladder.

HA!

I'm climbing the game ladder;)

....basically the same stuff...but less gross, and less pay:-p

Read the article. sheesh!

I`m glad I`m a contractor and can kinda choose my work and use my own Lab!

though saying that I have had my fair share of total gross outs!, even puked upon a slide the once preparing it (I hadn`t long woken up and it was an "emergency").

But some of that stuff in that article, hell no!

YUCK!

Darn, a lot of what I do entails both 9 & 13; fleeced another sperm whale today, and reek!

That fart job, I don't know how that guy can take it. That's just sick.

Seems like the link is broken. I thought I saw "post-doc" on there the first time. I'm glad I'm breakin my balls through graduate school just so I can have a shot at one of the worst jobs in science. LOL

"Seems like the link is broken."

 

I got a 404 too. Bohoo, just when I wanted to be very disgusted. :<

Lol, I got to read the article once and then the error came up.

did they take it offline? Maybe they just moved it. can anyone find it?

The article came out a few months ago they might have deleted it from the site.

this is the novemeber '04 update:
