I woke up this morning with an e-mail from a professor who is a co-author on a manuscript, let's call this one lazy ass dumb fuck (LADF for short). Quick timeline for background:
January 2012: I sent a manuscript to LADF per their request, for LADF to make changes to the document
May 2012: LADF gives me revisions
1 week laster: I sent manuscript back to LADF
August 2012: LADF gives me revisions
1 day later: I send LADF revisions
October 2012: LADF gives me revisions, I send document to advisor, per advisor's request
1 day later: LADF asks me to run asinine analysis
1 day later: I send analysis to LADF
About two weeks later (which was yesterday) my advisor gives me revisions on LADF's latest draft and says it was worse than it was before, it's a jumble, and I should rework the intro and "turn it around in a couple days". Today, LADF asks me to re-do analysis using another wave of data just for shits and giggles...oh and uh, can I recheck values on another manuscript too, while I'm at it. I was like,
I just now finally got a little bit of time to work on my dissertation revisions, that my advisor finally gave me, before having to work on another presentation for a conference and flying to a conference the next and then having my proposal meeting a week after!
