If you can’t picture your job being done by a pig wearing clothes in a children’s book, it’s not a real job and you add no real value to society. (lemmy.ml)

I can't really see a pig dressing up to write code for cancer research. Maybe that's why the NIH has had funding cut

Lab coat, pocket protector, short sleeved plaid shirt, boom

I wish we got lab coats. Those lucky mfs in wet lab get all the cool stuff

Big Science doesn't want you to know this, but You can just buy lab coats!

You don't need a degree or anything, they just hand them out for money!

If dress code permits, I'd absolutely buy my own and wear it. If anyone complains, tell them we're doing research, and all sciences deserve lab coats!
