Dear Kent,

  I've been Sally's lab assistant for the past seventeen years. Never in my life has anyone had the AUDACITY to come into MY lab Sally's lab without a guided tour and at least one lab member present. The reason for this is quite simple. People who don't know anything about glass or glass blowing touch things they're not supposed to touch. I very distinctly remember having the beakers on the second shelf from the top near the bookcase. Now they're on the third shelf from the top. Why are you moving my beakers?? 

  Secondly, scientific glass blowing is not your artisanal make whatever you want Venetian "art" crap. We use diamond grinding, lapping machines, lasers and ultra-sonic mills. You have to take a 4-year certification class before you can use the ultra sonic mill and I know you were playing around with it because I had it turned OFF and YOU had it set to 20KHz and the cord pulled out from the wall. That's not the proper way to shut down the machine. Now I don't know how long you were in there, but my stash of orange colored glass was all rifled through. AND I found odd-shaped glass objects in the trash. I don't know what you were trying to make...a bong?? And lastly, one of my blow pipes is missing. If you could please return that to Sally or me, we'd be much obliged.

  Finally, I'd like to invite you, the administration and all members of the Syracuse community, to come in for a guided tour. We are NOT your buried treasure to discover.

  Cordially,

Shit, Kent, you must've been here while you were walking the halls of Maxwell (convenient to visit when no students are packed into the windowless dungeon TA bays). I noticed some of my wheat thins and peanut butter are missing (Did you double dip? Look, from now on when you take a wheat thin, just take one, dip, and end it). I know it must've been you 'cause some PBRs were gone too and we all know grad students only enjoy craft beers these days. Listen, we're all familiar with desk sharing since we're two-to-a-desk here, but we all know to clean up our crumbs when we steal other people's food and to replace it with beer (but not that cheap PBR shit that those IR/MPA guys always give us). And that orange glitter you left behind? Were you checking out my girlfriend in the photo I have on my desk?!? I always have it on the right hand side so I can see her when I type and I found the photo on the left hand side (with little orange glitter smudges). Seriously, what's up with you and orange?!? If you "want to get a sense of the spaces and people working in them," then email me and we'll set up a time and I'll show you ALL the dark, gross nooks and crannies where TAs have to do their work.

  Grossly underpaid TA,
