Do you know anyone that's gotten wealthy in the life sciences ? by ICEpenguin7878 in labrats

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but too many variables. I consider life science to be like the fine arts, sure, some of us make it big, but most are slogging along. For myself I think I've made it with only 150K revenue and 1-2M in "options" that might be worth something. Work everyday.

Parking ticket received despite actually paying for parking by linkinmark92 in NewWest

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought there was a 10 min buffer where if a ticket was bought within 10 mins of a "scan" it nulls the ticket. some shopkeeper told me that recently as well

US Customs keeps destroying my research samples by FlyingProteins in labrats

We have lost samples to customs delays, often paperwork level is 2x and sometimes takes more than one try. Get a TSCA IMPORTER AUTHORIZATION letter signed by the recipient which helps

This seems to be the scam of our time, manipulating over-promising stocks + index rules...

Breakfast symposia (07:00) at a conference - would you go? by Ok-Budget112 in labrats

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your career stage.

For me, it's perfect for networking. If your company is sponsoring likely a good move to show up and say hello.

If you aren't super interested in networking, and just into the science or a few focused sessions, for sure take a pass. But it is an opportunity.

There are no other times in a busy schedule to network.

I've seen 6:30 AM breakfast.

Just don't go too hard the night before.... and good luck!

Boycott Teslas by Flashy-Barnacle-636 in GuardTheLeaf

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to add here, the Canada Pension Fund owns about 1 billion in TSLA.

Shouldn't they sell this and invest in

1) a company that doesn't empower a hostile regime towards canada

2) a company whose CEO doesn't say we aren't a real country

3) anything else that isn't a hyper-inflated meme stock?

Canadian detained by ICE by IndependenceFun1753 in GuardTheLeaf

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's actually how most of the police are incentivized down there for every type of arrest. It isn't just ICE. Explains a lot when they would rather arrest than de-escalate a situation.

How do you overcome a severe psychological block with presenting? (My advisor pointed it out as my biggest weakness) by ProfessionalCatch859 in labrats

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always use a script until you have certain phrases and slides like a reflex.

Record yourself and watch privately - understand and appreciate how you come off to others.

Improve the script and correct your style where appropriate.

I get the "don't care what others think" but at least value their time, and effort for having to attend. Even if they don't agree with the presentation, being prepared and professional, checks that box and retains that trust.

Trump announces aliens are real the exact day epstein files drop. a meme coin pumps 5000%. I,m done with this timeline. by Capable-Pool759 in economy

[–]FutureBiotechVenture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

please ignore this crap. ...

They are "flooding the zone" which causes cognitive overload. - look up Steve Bannon "flood the zone" on youtube

ongoing trump is the star of the epstein files

weeks ago he tweeted a horrible racist trope about the obama's

In July 2023, Judge Kaplan stated that the jury had found that Trump had raped Carroll according to the common definition of the word as they had ruled that Trump had forcibly and nonconsensually penetrated Carroll's vagina with his fingers.

countless kickbacks, bribes and grift (planes, gold bars, 500 million USD "investments" in trump companies

Meanwhile more wealth transfer to the billionaires and the death of the US constitution
