      Hi collz, ha!! About once a year I have a bad day and think about giving it up. I look at job adverts and think about what else I would like to do but I have NEVER yet found anything I would rather do than be a scientist. Nothing ever seems as interesting, flexible or fun. I always feel much better that I am already in the right job after looking at the job adverts… (unless I could be an astronaut! but even then I would want to be able to do experiments in space)
