      @@hahathatsgood It sounds like you may not be in the best group, but I'm genuinely curious about what you expected.
      I have mentored scores of undergrads, sent them to international conferences, helped them win prestigious scholarships (like NSFGRF), given them opportunities to be coauthors, set the same high expectations for them as my postdocs. My most recent undergrad refused to apply to any non-R1 research schools for a phd and refused to keep a lab book because they thought photos on their phone were good enough...they are now taking a forced gap year having not been accepted anywhere. Another student thought that their cinema club was more important than working towards a first-author paper. A few students have ignored the advise of their mentors (be they senior undergrads, postdocs, or myself), thinking that they know better, then irreparably damaged months of their work or equipment; one had their mother call me when they then could not get data for a required senior thesis, even though we had already talked about an alternative topic requiring no data.
      I've met some of my best friends working in labs as an undergrad or phd student, but the focus is still on work while we're in the lab.
      I do laugh inside watching students make "air hashtags" unironically or whatever the latest things are. But as someone actively working towards DEI on multiple fronts, I am constantly thinking of my biases and to make sure that they do not influence my actions and impact students.
      There are a lot of workshops for students at universities and whatever professional society your field is. They will help teach you about the culture of your field.
      When we treat students as mature scientists, we expect them to learn from those they are working with and act to like it. We overlook generational idiosyncrasies if the student is otherwise proactive, engaged, interested, and open to learning and feedback.

Everyone in the room says, "you didn't have a lunch when you came in". Since so many people said you didn't have it you start to leave wondering if you're going crazy because you could have sworn you had it.

    My first day as CFO of my new job, I had two 20-something girls on my staff who requested an URGENT meeting with me because they wanted to re-write their own job descriptions to what they enjoyed doing more. When I told them they couldn't do that, one of them ran to her office and started crying. The next week they both came back to me and asked why they weren't allowed to sit in on Senior Executive Meetings with me and the CEO.

      @@christycampbell2410 I didn't know what to say during the first meeting, honestly. I was a deer in the headlights. But for the 2nd meeting, I said "A Senior Exec Meeting is for Senior Execs. That's why they call it that. End of discussion." One of the girls quit after my 3rd week. It was during a staff meeting where I had asked to her to handle a media project (which was literally her job) and she glared at me and said "I don't like doing that." I offered her the option of doing it or leaving. She chose to leave. And the one who stayed behind shaped up really quickly.

    • @marshallhuffer4713
      @marshallhuffer4713 Год назад +4

      Here's the thing with that: Gene Roddenberry didn't want the main characters to have any interpersonal conflict due to his optimistic vision of humanity enlightened future, but the writers didn't like it as conflict is the essence of drama and Gene's vision put constraints on them because they had to do new ways to tell stories and if the characters are perfect and have no problems of conflicts, then there is no story. In fact, the first season had 30 writers leaving the show due to Gene and his lawyer, Leonard Maizlish enforcing the vision.
