      No one enjoys science all the time! even good stuff you need a break from now and again!

      I enjoy science, but I’d be lying if I said I enjoyed it all the time!

      Sometimes it’s really difficult to keep focussed when everything seems to be going wrong in your experiments! I think that’s like any job though. There are good times and bad times! Luckily the good times happen more often than the bad times.

      I wouldn’t say I enjoy it ALL of the time, but for the most part I do. Its just one of those things; when your experiments continually go wrong, it feels like the end of the world (a little dramatic, I know!), but when things fall into place you feel great – its a rewarding experience.

      I agree with all other scientists. I enjoy it but not all the time. A break serves me well now and then!
