me when the bacteria c o l o n i s e s
#m a n. i thought that the sample would turn out negative for bacteria (like the rest have been for the past. what. year and a quarter(?))
#esp since the agar testing stick things used were freshly expired (thanks for the expired reagents workplace; cost cutting ftw!!!!)
#but. ewwwwwwwwwwww it actually grewwwwwwwwwwww
#and the small stick thing was covered from like top to bottom in countless dark red colonies. ewwwwwwwwww
#all the other agar stick things were completely clean though so it was def a problem with the sample and not with my handling of the agar
#in any case!!!!!!! it was the first time i saw a positive for bacteria growth on a sample and!!!!
#it was also my first time reporting the results for this test!!!! without any of the test-familiar staff around!!! so!!!!! not fun!!!!!!!!
#i didn’t even k n o w what they meant when they asked to ‘describe the colour/appearance of the colonies’ bc the managers’ expectations are.
#just. *weird*. sometimes. ughhhhhh im ready for the inevitable groupchat callout on tuesday with ‘who taught you to report like this????’s
#well e x c u s e me for not knowing sir you never taught me how to report colony growths or anything auauaaaaaaaaaa
#but is ok!!!!!! i’m taking tuesday off anyway!!!! it’ll be the tuesday workers’ problem now!!!!!!!! good luck guys!!!!!!!
#at least there was no fungi either… now *that* would’ve been extra gross
#the bio class flashbacks were r e a l today… thank god i don’t ever have to open that stupid pharmacopoeia ever again
#also reminds me of (one of) my stupidest moments in a bio class though…
#back in the days of yore (read: anatomy class in the year of ‘17) i was an absolutely horrible student who’d never fail to nap in class
#so when my lecturer asked connecting questions down the class register…
#yk stuff like asking student 1 to ‘name a type of cell’ and then asking student 2 to ‘name an organelle that a [student 1’s cell] contains’
#he asked the girl before me to name a hormone. she answered ‘growth hormone’. and i was like. dammit. idk where it’s found. lolhelp.
#(bc i never read ahead either + the growth hormone didn’t even show up in lessons during that school term)
#so when he inevitably asked me to ‘name the organ that produces the growth hormone’ i answered (exact quote) ‘i don’t know; the ovaries????’
#the class laughed. sad. the lecturer retorted with sth like ‘then are you saying that boys can’t grow?’ and i just shrugged
#the girl after me (who incidentally has the same first+last name as me phonetically speaking) gave him the right answer thoughhhh
#i hope i managed to buy my name twin enough time to look up the correct answer (if she didn’t already know it) with my stupid guess
#yeahhhhhh i do n o t miss bio class. at all. giggity
#anyways that’s enough flashback sequences for one year. can’t believe the next year’s less than 10 days away tbh. can’t wait!!!!!!!!
