If anyone were to ask you about your current job choice, you would only have one reasonable response: the job market is an absolute shithole right now. No internships in sight, no research funding, and certainly no well-paying entry-level jobs in your desired field.

So, when you saw an online job posting a research and administrative position at the Rhodes Hill Chronic Care Center, you clicked “Apply”. Miraculously, you got an interview, and the next thing you know, you are helping out an unnerving eight foot tall scientist.

“Write down that virus concentrations should be increased for 3 and 4. And please, have someone clean up the cells this time.”

You don’t think you’ve ever heard him raise his voice before.
