My husband wrote the following for me in honor of Research Administrator's Day and I wanted to share it with you all. I hope you find it as funny as I did!! 😁

 

Remember those Bud Light Commercials for Real American Heroes/Real Men of Genius? Keep that theme/tune in mind as you read this...

 

Bud Light Presents: Real American Heroes
(Real American Heroes!)


Today we salute you, Research Administrator
(Research Administrator!)

 

You play a critical role in the academic research community … doing nearly all of the work, and earning practically none of the credit.

(Muy subestimada!)


You are the unsung heroes who work tirelessly behind the scenes … helping principal investigators narrowly avoid violating at least a dozen federal regulations.
(I don’t want to go to prison!)


40-hour work weeks – what are those? … you work nights, weekends, and sometimes nights on the weekends.

(Sorry about date night!)


You strive to maintain the highest ethical standards … even as your faculty occasionally treat their research grant like a secret Cayman Islands bank account.
(Hooray for Second Christmas!)


So, crack open an ice-cold Bud Light, sponsored programmer, because we all know … when the going gets tough, the tough get maximum indirect costs for their institution.
(Research Administrator!)

 

Have a good one! 

Michelle
