  • Our research institute management decided it knows better than the funding bodies, who laid out a five point plan that needed to be followed in order to keep our funding. Two of which were, make english the default work language and increase the number of foreign scientists. 10 years later, and management and senior researchers refused to implement them, so the funding body has had enough and is going to remove what will be almoat 70% of our funding. Great job you muppets!










  • I am a scientist and I used to use SAS for stats, and then started doing loads of bioinformatics in R. Institute decided they werent going to license SAS anymore, and didnt tell us. We get an email the day of, to say no more SAS. Then we have to drop evrything and concert all our SAS models into R… Cue bitching from instiute leaders as to why we had to halt all publications. Idiots.
