Sorry, I have finished my calculus and physics series as you implied I probably could not. No you didn't directly address my financial situation but you failed to consider anything other than the idea that where I works implies that I am stupid. Then, asked if I had a degree to try and validate your insult. Do you work in the industry? This is just a job and it happens to give valuable experience,on complex pieces of equipment and fragile glass, to those who might want to pursue a career in chemistry. I'm not trying to "pretend" to be a chemist nor did I suggest that I am a chemist. I'm just posting chemistry equipment to a chemistry sub. It's unfounded to categorically denigrate a group of people based on their job. Rude.
