The professor came up with the idea last Friday that he wants to get a grant submitted by next Thursday. The grant will be based on a project that all but two of the people in our lab work on, with one labmate in particular being the key contributor of preliminary data.
This means a total of 13 days to complete a grant. Counting the weekends.
This is somewhat insane. Everyone in lab except the professor agrees.
This means that there's a lot of the professor coming out and randomly bugging people for data and analysis, despite of the two paper that are nearing the final stages of experiments currently going on in lab.
As of last evening, the amount of hysterical giggling has been steadily increasing in lab, including an instance where a post-doc thought someone was calling her when no one was. (How many emails can one professor generate in one day, anyway?) And now...well, nine more days to go.
