      It’s fun – I work in a great team where we discuss ideas to solve problems so it can be very social and creative

      I like it, but at the end of the day you get used to it and treat it just like another job. I come into work, help scale up new or improved plastics, maybe make a batch of stuff or run some tests and then go home. I wear a white coat and glasses sometimes, other times I’m sitting at a desk. Luckily, I don’t need to do too much maths.
