What do I know I’m just a
technician
I only have a meagre 13
years’ experience
You’d like to do some
microscope acquisition?
Nah don’t look for me I’m
just a technician
How much was that new
microscope Ki?
Just under a million, I
reckon ay?
When will it be our lab’s
turn to try?
We want to look at our
mutant fruit fly
Don’t come to me I’m not an
expert
What do I know of the
microscope invert
Mind that 30k lens on the objective
turret
Scratches and crashes you
may want to avert
What do I know I’m just a
technician
I’m not a high browed
grey-haired academician
I know which scopes have
better transmission
I can probably explain
complex super resolution
I must have a use or why am
I employed
I help image cells, tissues,
organoids and spheroids
But yet when I raise
techniques to avoid
I get treated like I’m not
even humanoid
What do I know I’m just a
technician
What do I know about photon
emission
Or about the importance of
experiment repetition
What do I know I’m just a
technician
