I’m the same as Danna. I love figuring out ways to make new chemicals that no one else has made before. Science is all about problem solving and when you manage it, it feels great!
I was going for the free food at conferences and the tea break as the best part of the job, but then I decided to be serious…
The best part is probably the feeling you get when you finally crack the puzzle (as Danna called it), the big important problem you were trying to solve for a very long time, and it seems everything makes a little bit more sense (or sometimes, the opposite, and nothing makes sense at all!) This is specially fun to do when more scientists are involved.
