Over the past several months, it has become clear to me that if there is no
drastic change in the lab, our lab will soon cease to be a productive, first
-rate lab that you chose to join in the first place. Lab progress reports
over the past six months have clearly shown the lack of progress in most
projects. One year ago, when we first moved, I expressed clearly to everyone
my expectation from each one in the lab. The most important thing is what I
consider to be sufficient amount of time and effort in the lab work. I
mentioned that about 60 hr working time per week is what I consider the
minimal time an average successful young scientist in these days has to put
into the lab work.
I am imposing strict rules in the lab from now on:
1. Every one works at least 50 hr a week in the lab (e.g., 8+ hr a day, six
days a week). This is by far lower than what I am doing every day and
throughout most of my career. You may be smarter or do not want to be as
successful, but I am not asking you to match my time in the lab.
2. By working, I mean real work. This does not include surfing on the
computer and sending and receiving e-mails for non-scientific matters
unrelated to your work (you can do this after work in the lab or at home),
and excessive chatting on nonscientific matters. No long lunch break except
special occasions. I suggest that everyone puts in at least 6 hr
concentrated work and 2+ hr reading and other research-related activity each
day. Reading papers and books should be done mostly after work. More time
can be spent on reading, literature search and writing during working hours
when you are ready for writing a paper.
3. I must be informed in person by e-mail (even in my absence from the lab)
when you are absent from the lab for a whole day or more. Inform me early
your vacation plan. Taking more than 20 working days out of one year is the
maximum to me. In fact, none of you are reporting any vacation and sick
leave on your time sheet (against the university rule, although I have been
signing the sheets), but you know roughly how many days you were not here.
On the whole, I understand and accept the fact that you may not fulfill the
above requirements all the time, due to health reasons, occasional personal
business. But if you do not like to follow the rules because it is simply a
matter of choice of life style, I respect your choice but suggest you start
making plans immediately and leave the lab by the end of January 31. I will
do my best to help you to locate a lab to transfer or to find a job.
If you do accept the conditions I describe above, I am happy to continue to
provide my best support to your work, hopefully more than I have done in the
past. I will review the progress of everyone in the lab by the end of June.
I expect everyone to have made sufficient progress in the research so that
a good paper is in sight. If you cannot meet this goal at that time, I will
have to ask you to prepare to leave my lab by the end of August. | j******n

想干这行的，一周六七小时也叫苦。教父里面有类似的话。this is the business we
chose, I don't complain.
