It's the last month of the summer. How are your interns doing?

Mine were always hustling to get that last piece of data for their poster. Others, sleeping on couches. 🤣

And great stories about this summer's interns?

My interns have been doing great so far, this has definitely been one of the better groups that I've gotten to work with. There hasn't really been any crazy stories about any of them, they all just do their work which is really all I can ask for.

That's the best when you have a great group over the summer. It makes it a lot easier.

Our one summer intern has been...enthusiastic is the polite way to put it. "Annoying" would be more accurate. I appreciate his work ethic (kinda) but somehow he is everywhere, all at once, all the time, and asks "why why why" more than my 5 year old.

Hahaha! I've had those types too. I appreciate the questions, but a whole summer of not having a complete thought bc of the interruptions is really, really rough. It's very much akin to having kids.
