When I took the lab, the proctor seemed in a hurry to get out at the end
of the day. We took maybe 20 minutes for lunch and he was trying to
hustle us all back to our stacks. Well, one of the guys said he needed
a smoke and the proctor told him that he could go outside and smoke and
that he'd give him the time at the end. I didn't like choking down my
food and running back - stressed enough already - so I asked if I could
just go outside and get some fresh air. This was at RTP, so I walked
down to the creek and back, got a little fresh air and degaussed myself.
Even if you don't smoke, don't be afraid to push back when they rush
you. The proctor wasn't being rude, I wasn't rude, he understood and I
felt better.
No word on beer, but this is NC ("buckle of the bible belt"). I'm sure
they serve wine in California :).

You definately have a better chance of getting a drink in Europe at
the lab, hell you can order a bier with your Big Mac when I was in
Deutschland!! :)
