So pretty much every scientist at my (US) company is poor? Even uppermanagement in r&d. None of us see 30 days off per year. At most of is 25 after 2 decades.

I'd say 15 days instead of 30 seems fair number for America and probably 30 for europe

I feel sorry for you.. buy yes.

you've never been a scientist, have you? The experiments don't care about how much vacation you're legally entitled to.

Sure, if you’re a lab rat or a PhD student.

I believe the correct terms are ambitious or accomplished.

Ambitious. Sure, but accomplished? Oh if only hard work necessarily equates to that...

Not as good a scientist as possibe unless it is so.

That's why they call it a LABORatory . . .
