Working in a Laboratory

I was working in the Lab, as usual, when my Colleague brought his three-year-old son into work.

…

Tony: Hi, Gale. This is my son, Philippe. There was a problem with his Daycare today, so he’ll be spending the day here with me. I’ll teach him all about doing Research.

Gale: I’m not sure this is a good place for a Toddler. Should he be playing with the Microscope like that?

Tony: Oh, he’ll be fine. I’ll just keep the Beakers and Test tubes out of his Reach and he’ll be all right.

Gale: Whoa, he almost Tipped over that tray of Petri dishes. I’m using those for the Experiment I’m running, and there are some pretty dangerous Chemicals in them.

Tony: Good thing you saw him before he could do any real damage. I think he just wants to help, right? You just want To collect some Data for Gale, right?

Gale: Don’t look now but he’s Emptying those Solutions into the pockets of your Lab coat.

Tony: Oh, you Silly goose! You’re just trying to make work more fun and interesting for us, aren’t you?



Crime and punishment.
Healthy food.
