In this episode, Purple Maid gets to choose between two fates worse than death.
Another regular day in her life then.
"Survived working under the supervision of Hugo Lotushand" looks great in a curriculum too.
Research in assorted fields of nano physics. Last 4 years I've been literally spending more days setting up/calibrating vacuums for experiments than not.
That sounds both boringly tedious and interesting at the same time.
It is. One eventually sees nice things, but there's days/weeks/months of repeating and calibration in between.
Any cool discoveries?
One can set up a ball of Iridium atoms in the millimiter scale around 1E-9 K with a team of just three dudes and a budget around just a million euros, 2D GaSe can make for really economic gas detectors with precision in the PPT range, and one can use CVD to grow up SnSeS heterostructures.
I know it's not what's meant, but I like to believe that this means advanced physics research is being done with vacuum cleaners.
Another bad perk of the job is that you need to do the lab floor cleaning yourself because you can't trust normal cleaning employees to not knock something important/sensitive.
