Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      I understand - I was making a joke - sorry...

        Meeting got postponed until after next week. I think worst case scenario we still have a surplus of enough money to hold us for another year.

            I don't know what exactly you studied but I sure know that Great Britain needs scientists. They are begging for them, especially medics and biochems..
            Get your behind over there and you'll be greatly rewarded.

                  Don't worry. You always have Medtronic as last resort. It's only the world's leading manufacturer of medical devices. I'd be more than happy to put in a good word for you ladybug.

                    I may need that sooner than I thought... I have a meeting with the head of my lab at noon. Crap. So it goes. Maybe it's not such a bad thing? It'll give me a chance to think a bit about where to go next and a less stressful- more financially rewarding job is always a good thing to look forward to.

                      My last day of work is June 24th. I must say, this may have been the nicest most complimentary laying off in the history of people being laid off. Not only was I given compliments for my work (120% apparently) waaay beyond what I thought I have done here so far, I was also assured that excellent recommendations and personal emails to other labs at Caltech in addition lab heads at other jobs I apply to are something I should expect as they plan to do everything they can to help me find somewhere to work and are very sad to see me go. At least the severence payment will pay loan bills for a while anyway. Not only that, I was told that of all the people let go they are quite upset to see me leave and they wanted very badly for me to stay as my level of work quite surpasses the work the others who are leaving have done so far. I'm impressed with myself, but also, well, this sucks! Ahh well, ever the greedy one I hope to get a job that pays more, and soon.
