Here is a list of rules I have learned working in a lab and being in lab classes over the years. Most of them I or someone around me learned the hard way.
LAB RULES
1. Change your gloves
2. Do not eat any samples. Even if they are food.
3. LABEL! EVERYTHING!
4. Do not leave any liquids precariously over the edge of a counter
5. The heat glove cannot touch things that are 550 Celsius
6. Add acid to water, never water to acid
7. Always have a spare pair of jeans

This isn’t writing related at all, but I freaking LOVE chemistry.
Totally not because I inhaled toxic fumes on accident in my lab today. Totally not for that reason.

The second panel, the "I" they snuck in awkwardly because I guess informal sentence fragments are not in keeping for Grundy -- and not enough space in that second line I guess -- and relettering two word balloons a no-go. Archie no longer has stomach showing from the chemical explosion in the fourth panel.
Okay, so i'm studying marine biology in college so I have to take a general chemistry lab, I also have POTS. I have now learned that these do not mix well. The lab obviously has many safety measures that it needs to follow. When in the lab everyone has to wear a knee length lab coat, full length pants, long socks, latex gloves, safety goggles, and closed toed shoes. The dress code makes me over heat extremely quickly and makes my heart rate spike super high too. As a result I become very dizzy, light headed, and feel as though I am going to pass out. I'm terrified to pass out in the lab since we are at tall lab benches and we are working with chemicals that can have serious health effects. I told my professor, my TA, and the office for disabilities (OSD) on my campus but nothing has been helpful. I'm honestly scared to go back into the lab but the class is required for me to graduate. I don't know how i'm going to be able to do this class. I also have chronic pain and generalized hypermobility (working on getting an EDS diagnosis) and I use forearm crutches or smart crutches and knee braces which also make moving around the lab difficult.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to make this class easier please tell me or if anyone has any suggestions as for how to make the professor/osd understand
edit: I dropped the class because it’s just not worth the risk
