      Well amelia, I have a couple of years left doing what I’m doing now… I don’t know what I’ll do afterwards!
      I don’t think I’m very well-suited to lab work.

      I’m perfectly capable of doing it, but not so much at long-term planning of what I need to get done. I can do what people tell me to do… maybe I should be a technician! Also, I have a lot of ideas, so I could tell other people to do my work for me. Maybe I would make a good lab-head, but that would take quite a lot more years of lab experience and I’m not sure I want to do that!!

      I’d like to move into science communications I think (hence doing I’m a Scientist!) or government/science-relations stuff.

      I will see what happens 🙂
