@dauphin87 to you as well. Hope life’s been treating you fairly?
@Coffee_and_Salt as always
@SmirkingRaven it’s always an exceptionally good omen to see a smirking raven in the morning.
Nice to see you!
@Coffee_and_Salt
OMG you're BACK! I had been scarce around these parts for a while and when I got back I wondered where you were!
@Helical_Code nice to see you! Popped back in thought I’d send my seasonal well wishes.
Things working well for you? Know last year you had been slammed with projects. How’s that treating you this year?
@Coffee_and_Salt
How nice that you remembered!
Still slammed! There continues to be tension between my "side project" - building a detailed catalog of 1300 genes - and my main project researching an aspect of protein degradation. I have a meeting related to the side project with some people in Australia in ~ 7 hours and need to get off CoSo for the day and prepare for it. The chief wants to loop them into the project and I want to remain in charge. The chief? Not clear what he will give away.
@Helical_Code wow! I am very glad I asked, thats quite intense! Wishing you well during the meeting, make sure to take a five minute break with a hot cup of something before hand if you can? That’s got to be nerve fraying stressful.
@Coffee_and_Salt
I'm manning the Zoom controls, so I need to be a little careful with that! But I will do a little pre-game stretching & warm beverage drinking. I'm tense about the meeting but I am also prepared. Thanks for your good wishes!
@Helical_Code absolutely! But you don’t need em. Go kick ass!
@Coffee_and_Salt 💚
(going for real now)
@Coffee_and_Salt good to see you again.
