Life update: Cutting organs, keeping tarantulas and more
7 years ago
So, life slowly turns to the better.
11th June I started my new job in a histology lab. Part of my main job cutting all sorts of organs so that our pathologists can see certain areas once the tissue is dehydrated, embedded in paraffin, cut into 3µm thin slices and then stained.
I also do a lot of this staining and paraffine cutting, which really takes a lot of practice to get good slices.
My trial period is almost over, no full 2 months left and the deputy head of the company said she is satisfied with my work and happy I joined, she even wants me to do some sort of picture for our companies website.
On the 28th one of our scientists will do a mushroom field trip with whoever wants to join. 7th December we will have a Christmas party and my collegues told my our boss alway prepares a surprise excursion before inviting to a star restaurant. Im not used to such generous bosses :'D
So yeah, a lot to do at work but its fun and time flies by, so I can't complain.
I have good relationships with my coworkers. A lot of nerds...yay! I will even start a Dungeons and Dragons party with some of the (one of them our Human Resources Manager :'D)
Aside from the job situations...by now I got a decent collection of tarantulas, 2 geckos, a scorpion and a Giant African snail. (will get 2 more snails since they shouldnt be kept alone). There was a terrarium fair in a town nearby and I spent a bit too much money...
... which means I have to try to draw faster so I can take more and more commissions. :'D
Im going to upload some new pics of my pets, so you've been warned! :)
