At a fork in the road for a while, I finally took the plunge and set forth looking for a new job as a lab manager.  It’s scary stuff because it was comfortable being an associate scientist.  It was low key.  Not a lot of stress, other than the incessant drama with our group leader and SVP.  I had my buddies to get me through the day at least.  I was comfortable.

Social media coordinator/manager thing didn’t pan out.  It wasn’t what I expected to be.  Being creative was a lot of pressure for me.  Getting my foot in the door was near impossible.  I would most likely have to spend a good amount of time, volunteering my services to a nonprofit with their social media needs.  I did not enjoy working with the digital marketing manager at my then company.

I was intrigued by the prospects of a job as a lab manager in the past but did not pursue it persistently.  After the company’s lab manager left a few years ago, I wanted the chance to fill it but the role was diminished and offered to a new hire.  And that was that.  Faced with ruling out the social media route, I remembered considered managing the lab.

The new job was a wonderful opportunity to join a small biotech startup of 12 people.  We work on optimizing T cell recognition for cancer masses.  Cancer research is so important and gets plenty of funding because of it.  That is why we’re expanding rapidly and will soon move to a new site -- coincidentally across the street of my last company.
