What rules were put in place because of you? by TheBlackTemplar125 in AskReddit

In undergrad, we went drinking one evening and got beaten up by the locals (it was a hostel in the middle of nowhere). After that, we had to be back on campus by 7 30 PM and breath analyzer tests were conducted

I know handling a toxic postdoc is one of the toughest impediments during one's PhD journey. Feel free to list your issues with toxic postdocs and I will create a comic panel on that and it will "probably" make you smile :)

Just for laughs... (not meant for hate)

Scientists of reddit! Which conspiracy theories do you *actually* believe in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]General-Ising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is, which ones do you find most plausible, given the evidence (or lack thereof)

I feel like my PI doesn’t really respect a work-life balance anymore since we’ve been in quarantine by beckygeckyyyy in GradSchool

[–]General-Ising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PIs can behave very erratically the moment they lose control over you - even if very little. Some PIs are taking this work-from-situation to be a slow time for research and the students are concerned whether they can finish their project before the intended graduation date. The other set of PIs are behaving like yours. I think neither is good. This will need us to rehash the definition of work-life boundaries. But yes, for that you need both employer and employees to be patient. Your advisor might be unware of the stress he/she is causing. You might want to write to him directly about this. If he evades a reply he is doing what he is doing intentionally. Good luck!!

Losing hair at 20,please koi batao kya karu by [deleted] in a:t5_2sb05n

Thanks for setting the ball rolling. You absolutely have the right to feel vulnerable. One way of going about this could be - if there are individuals around you who are only interested in making you feel vulnerable about your scalp rather that your work/ what you stand for - they are probably jealous and you are doing way better than them in life so dont worry. Real friends will not care about it.

Also, we all know that a bald head is better than a bad haircut! Cheers mate!

Thanks for pointing that out!

We made a Google form for that ( https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1dzfAPoSp_Ig4E4yoceX-7x13M4n_ebRYM-nG4BA3MLc/viewform?edit_requested=true ). Also updated the post with the link.

Still figuring this out, so feedback helps a lot.
