Introducing the premier of our comic covering laboratory life. There’s plenty more to come. We welcome your tales of lab misadventures to be used for future strips.
great graphics. Don’t ever recall using pipette like this one from my long gone by days in chemistry. I do have a bicycle shifter that seemed to destruct with very similar characteristics, however.
This could apply outside the lab too. Reminds me of an uncle who was known as “Larry the lunger.” His talent was stripping lug nuts on tires. Knowing when to stop is critical in all kinds of situations!
Thanks everyone for the comments! We’ve had fun putting these together and there will be plenty more in the future. Great fun hearing that these types of things don’t only happen in the science field.
