A strange dynamic
Dr. S put me back as an author on the infamous paper that got me fired. I did some last minute histology before she submitted it to the journal and they liked it, I guess. She had originally told me she was dropping me (and my
3 1/2 months of data) from this paper and she wanted me out by the end of the year. It's weird that 2 weeks of tissue staining would take the place of months of behavioral experiments. Of course, her official justification for giving me the boot is that I was a "slow worker".
Then she agreed to be a reference for my grad. school application. She hasn't waivered on her "out-by-the-year's-end" stance and I don't expect her to. For some reason she really doesn't want me to hate her. So I pretend I don't (I even picked up the flowers for her birthday) and she keeps doing nice things for me. This is not what I'd call a functional relationship.
