Well, maybe it makes scoring a bit easier.

One of the lab managers just dropped by to let me know they had a new graduate student they would like me to train, and that he would be calling me.

His name?



Ufuk



Yeah, and it's pronounced in that most inappropriate way, too. And yeah, I checked to make sure it wasn't April 1.
 
I like the title "Well, maybe it makes scoring a bit easier." more than the actual name. :lol:
Funny stuff...
 
I can just see it now...Pam calling the new student...her voice rising a little like it is a question?....giggling here....actually belly laughing...

Kinda like the guy I work with named Long Dong (serious)
 
There was a turkish grill of the same name in town for a couple of years. It doesn't mean the same here, but I still regret that I have never taken a pic of it.
 
Sorry a manageress, I assumed a man because you gotta be PC now a days in England in certain places. If it's a female though I think you're probably safe, females normally trust their own kind.

I don't even try to pronounce most of the names of the students that come through this lab. All I worry about is that they write it clearly on the skills form so we can get it into the database spelled correctly. I have become quite skilled in the art of teaching by Mime, and even serving as a mime translator between two graduate students who speak different languages. And thank gnu for Babelfish!

Once I was trying to tell a Japanese grad student about a problem with one of his rats. One of out technicians was standing behind me going into convulsions watching me try and explain "Your rat has swollen testicles".

Apparently making a sort of upside down "m" between your legs is *not* the universal sign for "testicle".

I got ten bucks that says his last name is Thedog...:cool:
 
I know an Ufuk here at Tech. Best name I've ever seen was a Korean name in a patent:

Dong-Ki Kong

I'm not making that up...I wonder if he made a sequal Dong-Ki Kong Jr. :lol:
