Yesterday I started working in a new lab. The hardest thing about it is I have no idea where anything is. It’s sort of like cooking in someone else’s kitchen; you know what everything is and how it all works, but you can’t get anything done because you can’t find what you need. So you can either search through every drawer and cabinet yourself, or ask every thirty seconds “where’s this?” Either way, you feel dumb. Or at least I do. I guess I can take comfort in knowing it’s just part of the transition. I’ll eventually figure it out.
