Not to snark on the other science departments too much, but I enjoyed the following convo that I had with my boss.
Me: I have to autoclave the flask a few times between each infection.
Boss: Would it help if we got our own autoclave?
Me: It'd be cool, but it's probably not crucial.
Boss: So it's okay using the one in the building?
Me: Well, yeah. I don't really know what the Eco kids are autoclaving.
Boss: Seeds? ...Birds?
He tends to refer to them as the "seed-counters." Mean, yes, but I'm amused.
