Graduating in May. We have two student 'labs' on campus for us but one we designated a student 'study area' because the most dangerous thing we work with is dirt. That way the department saves money on hazard costs and such. We were required to have one by the school, the most dangerous thing in there is our mass spectrometer. I guess it could really be dangerous if you ground your face into a powder, placed it into the mass spec, and irradiated it but the face powdering part would probably be worse than the irradiation.

Might also hurt if you pushed it off the table and it landed on you but damn thing takes 3-4 people to move so that's unlikely to happen by accident.

it's pretty easy

This guy talked like a quarter of a billion people to death

In fact he even accomplished the incredible feat of killing more people than religion

>mathematicians screw up

You mean "causes earthquakes in Oklahoma." Which is a legit thing caused by geologists not manning up and blowing the whistle when they did the surveys.

Seeing as physicists aren't making black holes (I could be wrong) and also considering the fact that creating viruses isn't really a big topic of research I don't know where I was going with this.

>creating viruses isn't a big topic of research
Boy is you retarded?

I should have specified, it's not a topic of biology it's virology. Which is technically a branch of medicine but I guess you could argue its microbiology.

Yeah why fight back against the ruling class? Just be grateful for what you have and kiss your boss's ass for stealing from you.

as if a black hole needs some adjective to emphasize its catastrophic potential, if anything "deadly" diminishes its might

Are you seriously claiming that I -- Veeky Forums's renowned kpop shitposter -- would've posted a message without a Korean idol in it?

Bitch please, you must be smoking rocks.

Are you retarded? There have been many disease outbreaks due to researchers fucking up or not being careful.

>Revolution in Geology: "oh look the Earth is billions of years old"

A modern day discovery would probably be focused on the interior of the Earth, since it is a big open question.

There are quite a bit of interesting open questions in geology, they are just not widely publicized.

Mind explaining why the ruling class would want communism? That wouldn't be in their interests.

Your logic is flawed. The ruling class always stay in power, it's only the puppet faces that change. In fact, the ruling class gets even more benefits from communism.

t. ex commie shithole

Communism means the means of production are in control of workers. Are you telling me the ruling class is sick of their cushy jobs of investors and instead want to work too? If so what's the problem?

PLEASE don't derail this thread with political bullshit, it's all right, nazism is good and we hate niggers, just let this thread continue, it has some potential

eh, you are free to destroy your country if that's what you want, just don't say you weren't warned

I would go for a Ph.D. in geology, but I don't have the stones to do it

enjoy your office job instead of getting paid to go hiking and look at actual rocks
man, the one thing we have going for us that none of the other sciences do (except maybe conservation biology/ecology) and you wanna just throw that away to be a cubicle dweller...

Thanks for reminding me again why I love being a Geology major.

By the way, any other geofags about to graduate in this thread?

I am. I got hired at a geotech firm in the winter. im just counting the days.....

paleofag M.S. student here. off to a PhD program in the fall.

>Mathematician screws up

Nihilism is logically sound.

Geologist screws up: tanks can't traverse Omaha Beach on D-Day.
Geologist screws up: fluids from a uranium mine enter an adjacent aquifer.
The list goes on, stop treating geology like a meme.

This board can ruin you if you let the echo chamber take hold of you. Geologists do some good work from supervising there mines to maintaining our fresh water reserves. Hate how Veeky Forums treats them like a meme here
