i will be stuck on a plane with my supervisor to texas and with her at a conference... how do i cope?!!? What do I talk about?
What is wrong with treating your supervisor as *just* another person? Unless ofcourse you have a bad relationship with them in which case all you need to do is to get your seats on the plane seperately by going at different times to the airport!
yeh - i get on really well with her. She is lovely. But i dunno its jst wierd --- i think its sosmehting ishould get used to as we will be traveling together in the future. Bless her.
Sleeping pills and those little bottles of alcohol... With any luck one could sleep right through a conference... One of the things I do is get the proceedings and then bugger off to explore the place! My first conference was in Barcelona and my supervisor came and asked me if I had been to Spain before. I said No and he told me to get the proceedings and go on a tour. I did and have done so ever. The only thing I stay for are the keynotes and interesting talks I pre-select!
