This August marks the start of my 12th year as an SpR (with a PhD, an attempt at PI-ing, and some offspring happening along the way). A colleague reminded me that I am an “elder” trainee, and I realised I have now become the subject of this Tweet. #winning #FML

Someone please give that kid a spacer 🤦🏻‍♀️
