I remember the days when I could get drunk off beer…

Oh wait, no I can’t remember itat all. All that hard liquor has made my, umm, “thinking head thing” forget. I good with words too.

Nope.

I don’t know what’s worse - The fact that we can’t kill this thread, or that roughly 17% of ALL of my posts have been IN this thread.

**labtrash** , seriously, what’s your job? I don’t know if you’ve followed in some other threads, but I’m a lab rat too. I work in a hospital lab for one of the largest hospitals in Boston. [/curiosity]

I run an MQC testing Lab for a Plastics Manufacturer. We work in 70 degrees 24-7-365, production works in 120 degrees in the summer.

Guess what they call us?

Our Plant used to be in Canton, MA, but they moved it down here.

Ah…

:: jots down in mental record ::

I like to keep track of the lab types here, like **Mouse\_maven** and **Antigen** , to name a few.

Now kill this thread!

Sir, yes sir!

Actually, I’ll be away most of today, so my standing orders are to maintain the high level of standards in this thread so far, and await my triumphant return to put this thread down.

Carry on.
