Immediate failure for not being academia levels of brain-broken. You’ll sit in your cube and like it!

Oh, the funniest part of this to me was how certain I was it was true. I used to have to find alternate routes into the building all the time because of the geese. I think they nested in the bushes near all the doors. If it wasn’t, it was a very good lie and I appreciated the effort anyway.

This was for a lab I was teaching, so they had to be there in person. It was a 3 hour block, so I wouldn’t have even asked why they were late. I only even remember 5+ years later because they came rushing in with an explanation and I thought it was hilarious.

This may have worked. I once excused a student for being late because the geese were being aggressive.
- Comment on Can a COVID test show your level of infectiousness? 8 months ago:
Definitely. Plus, you can absolutely get different CT values from two different testing platforms. Some PCR tests are more hands-on than others and the result can vary based on the quality of processing and on the settings that are used in the analysis software.

A home test won’t. A PCR gives you some idea if you can get them to tell you the CT (cycle threshold) value of your test. The CT value corresponds to how many times the temperature cycled before the amplification signal of the sample became detectable. Lower CT values correspond to higher viral loads.
