Puisque je n'ai plus tellement la motivation de me battre - mais que j'ai quand même super la rage.
Puisque je ne peux pas appuyer sur "envoyer".
Mais je peux toujours en rêver.
Hi fucking collaborator from hell,
Chatting with colleague X after she came back from the XYZ meeting in Prague, it came to my knowledge that you used some of my figures during your presentation (i.e. y2h and GFP-geneX degradation in myfavouritemutant/over-expresser).
I do not remember having: (1) sent you those figures and (2) authorized you to present my work. (ex)Boss has confirmed that she was unaware that you would use my figures for a public talk.
I have asked (ex)Boss to talk to you about this issue, but have been met with some "we need to be diplomatic" answer.
As i strongly disagree, i therefore have no choice but to address this issue myself.
It is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE for you to present data from a work you have not been involved with, without mine or (ex)Boss' express consent.
This cannot happen again.
Thanks,
Angry (yet defeated) kiara.
In science, you're either a twat or you get screwed.
Seems that i'm not good at being a twat.
AND fucking collaborator from hell's paper has been accepted where i was refused - even though his paper is shite, but hey, i shouldn't complain, i'm second author on his paper.
Because yeah, being author #2 is my trademark.
In the meantime, i wonder why i allowed people (including (ex)Boss) to screw me over for so long.
