The life of a Chemist.

Your University choice.

During all these years of hard work and intense stress during your college studies, you discovered a passion for chemistry. So, you decide to apply to the University in Chemistry hoping to be accepted at Laval University. To your dismay, only Concordia University and the University of Sherbrooke offer you a place. You need to choose one of the two universities.

Choice 1 : Go to Concordia University.

Choice 2 : Go to Sherbrooke University.

At Concordia University.

It's not even a week since you already love your experience at this university. You love your classes and get along wells with your colleagues. On Tuesdays, while talking to someone, you get invited to a party that falls the day before a lab exam. Do you decide to accept the invitation or study for your exam?

Choice 1 : Go to the party.

Choice 2 : Study for your exam.

The importance of studying.

After a crazy night partying and drinking a lot, you hardly sleep at night and wake up only an hour before the exam begins. Desperate, you wonder if it is really necessary to do the exam.

Choice 1 : You decide not to attend the exam.

Choice 2 : You decide to take the exam even if you are not ready.

You should have studied!

You discovered that the lab exam was ultimately a big part of it and that eventually you failed your course. Seeing your lack of seriousness, the university decides to exclude you what leads you to stop your studies and look for a job. So, you decide to apply to different places with a vacant position. A few days later, McDonald's and Dollarama HR contact you to offer you a cashier position.

Choice 1 : You decide to work at McDonald's.

Choice 2 : You decide to work at Dollarama.

The worst job of your life.

Despite the many student jobs you've held in the past, you quickly notice that it's a dead-end job and that the environment was very alienating. You hate this job so much that it's a drudgery for you which doesn't stop you from doing this job all your life.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.

Working at Dollarama.

When you started working there, you quickly learned the ropes thanks to on-the-job-training and your motivation. Your hard work allowed you to quickly climb the scales until you reached the job of operations manager. Your hard work allowed you to quickly climb the scales until you reached the job of operations manager at Dollarama. This career allows you to have a premium wage and a very advantageous package compensation. You're going to do this job until you retire.

During your exam.

You're coming into your lab exam. You quickly discover that the purpose of the lab is to make a sodium hydroxide solution, but you don't know what reaction you need to do to get there. Your stress is so high that, from the beginning of the exam, you drop a graduated pipette that smashes and draws the attention of the whole class on you. Now, you're wondering what mixture you need to make. Do you mix solution A with solution B or do you mix the C solution with the D?

Choice 1 : Mix solution A with solution B.

Choice 2 : Mix solution C with solution D.

Congratulations, you set the school on fire.

The mixture of the two solutions (A and B) immediately creates a gigantic fireball that burns some of your colleagues as well as the class. Luckily for you, only your hair was hit by fire. On the other hand, unfortunately for you, the fire spread very quickly which set the entire University on fire. Overwhelmed by shame and unwilling to face the consequences, you decide to run to the other side of the world and lock yourself up, with no hair on your head.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.

It's your lucky day.

After mixing C and D solution (you learned after the exam that you made the wrong mix), a person next to you hangs up your montage with his coat and fails your experience. Your teacher, being understanding, agrees to have your exam resumed the next week. So, you're going to take advantage of this extra time to study and retake your exam, which will allow you to graduate.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.

You are the best.

Because you studied well for your exam, you know perfectly well that you have to mix solution B with solution C to get sodium hydroxide which allowed you to have an excellent score. On the other hand, when you leave your class, a colleague waits for you and reproaches you for having a better grade than him. He's jealous of you. He's starting to get very aggressive. What's your reaction?

Choice 1 : Punch him.

Choice 2 : Retaliate against his anger by yelling at him afterwards.

The battle.

Obviously, as an answer, he punches you directly in the nose, which destabilizes you. Are you fighting back?

Choice 1 : Try to knock him out.

Choice 2 : Apologize.

Big mistake!

Since you're a terrible fighter, you miss your shot and accidentally hit your old teacher who was nearby. Your adversary takes advantage of a powerful kick in the back which knocks you to the ground and forces you to go to the hospital. The doctor tells you that the blow broke your spine and that you will have to move in a wheelchair for the rest of your life.

Car accident.

Once your phone is in your possession, you go straight home. Unfortunately, you'll never go home, because an 18-wheeler is going to ram your car at an intersection and kill you instantly.

Personal comfort before career goals.

In the end, Bayer wasn't the company that found the vaccine first, but you were able to live happily ever after at least.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.

An internship at Tesla.

Once your internship starts, you are put in a team of various scientists to create a new battery that would allow greater autonomy. So, you decide to develop, among other things, a more efficient acid that allows more power and allows storing a greater electrical charge. Once the design was complete, the new battery was put into all Tesla SUV s. What you didn't know about when you were designing the battery was that after about a year, the acid you created was exploding. So there were thousands of trucks that were destroyed by your team's fault. The company is holding you to account. Do you blame yourself or the others?

Choice 1 : You blame the others.

Choice 2 : You admit your mistakes.

Tesla / Public domain

Sorry, I'm just an intern.

You explain to your superiors that you're just an intern, that you're there to learn the field and that you had more of an observer role than an actor in the process. You blame your work teammates (who are experienced scientists) for not doing enough verification. The company accepts your explanation and fires the rest of your team.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.

Sorry, I screwed up.

You decide to admit to your supervisor that you saw your team make mistakes, but that you decided not to do anything to correct them or warn your teammates. The company stops your internship and no more companies in the field of chemistry want to welcome you. Therefore, you are forced to stop school and do something else.

Choice 1 : Start over at the beginning.
