If they offer anything, it's best to ask legal. Read everything they want you to sign, read it again, then send it to a lawyer and sign nothing.

Lab manager: "We gave 44 talks over the life of this grant." Me: "I feel like it was more than that. Did I underreport?" LM: "No, I typed 'Dorian Gray's Kidney' enough." ("The Picture of Dorian Gray('s Kidney): How Past Acute Kidney Injury Haunts the Reproductive Future" was a solid talk title.)

i've started just saying "twenty gallons of water" immediately and flatly whenever someone tries to tell me how they used ChatGPT on some work project and boy it's pretty effective to dissuade people from using ChatGPT

I love it! We're Milwaukie citizens and LOVE the scarecrow display at the downtown trick-or-treat. <3

Thank you. I am very lucky to not, to the best of our knowledge, have any lasting health issues directly related. Hard to tell, of course, but others have had it much worse.

I was living in Minot during the ammonia train derailment in 2002 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minot_t...), and then was part of the Precision Castparts settlement for air pollution in 2022. I've seen how this can go, so please, take care of yourselves.

5) After you get the all clear, figure out what cleaners will NOT REACT with whatever was just in the air before you scrub stuff down. Don't poison yourself or strip the paint off your car. 6) Monitor all your symptoms. Log them if you notice them with dates. 7) File a class action lawsuit.

3) If you choose to leave, tell someone where you are going and contact when you get there. That way if you don't get there, they can send help. 4) If you cannot leave, leave your doors/windows tightly closed. Seal with wet towels if you question the seal tightness. Keep animals inside.

As someone who's lived in places with two massive chemical spills, ADVICE THREAD: 1) If someone offers you cash to sign saying if you get health issues later it's not their fault, DO NOT SIGN without a lawyer. 2) If you can leave, do. Cover your face and skin, protect your eyes.
