I'm still here. Just a little dizzy and bewildered.
I am now "Laboratory Director" of a reasonably large laboratory in Melbourne; part of a worldwide chain of American laboratories; so, who knows, I may get to the US yet.
I have tried to sever the links between the 'work me' and the 'blogging me' - my picture's changed, all links to my website gone. Just in case my various forays into sex, religion or politics touch any unnecessary nerves. Likewise I need to be a little careful with the Chemist's Kitchen blog, dealing only with generic issues, not specific products. Nor will I write about the company or the staff here.
But it has been an interesting two days; lost and floundering as one always is when new at a job. But the people are nice and it is a pleasant work place so it bodes well for the future.
And the coffee is excellent.

Sounds like you've fallen on your feet there. The trifecta for making humans happy.
ReplyDeleteChemical lab, industrial lab, manufacturing lab, food lab or clinical lab? He he..you must be one likeable director there.
ReplyDeletewould be great fun if you get to visit the US! sounds good there and will likely improve once you feel familiar with it all.
ReplyDeleteLong may it continue !
ReplyDeleteMan, with good coffee EVERYthing feels better.
ReplyDeletesending you good vibes Lee
ReplyDeleteAMERICANS?!?
ReplyDeleteWatch your back and wallet, then.
Still, you can't beat an office with good coffee.
Glad it's going well. I miss your face, though :(
ReplyDeleteGood luck with it all Lee. I am sure you will enjoy it all.

hey lee,
ReplyDeletewhat a lucky company to have seduced you into their midst! i'll look forward to your wry observations on the "peculiar" ways of the working world. my observation?: the bigger the company, the more a miracle it is that anything productive occurs.
take care, big hugs,
snowsparkle
Glad to hear you're back to being a productive member of society ;)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the new gig.
Greetings from the far north.
Coffee is good-that is important!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know, Lee - I go and spend 6 weeks in W.A. and when I get back to England I find that you have gone and got employed.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck mate - enjoy, but keep up the blog - we need you.
This place is really keeping you away from the blog world! Hope you are well.
