How to make your advisor happy:
don’t argue
immediately do whatever s/he tells you to
work as much as humanly possible
get tons of results
How to be a good scientist:
argue back; think about whether ideas make sense
do what makes sense to do next, even if it’s not what your advisor said
work hard, but in a way that’s sustainable and keeps you happy and healthy
get lots (maybe not tons) of deliberately-targeted results
Of course, a sane advisor will want the latter.

Favorite conversation among profs:
A. OMG, my student is being a major pain in the ass.
B. Really? What’s up?
A. He isn’t doing any work. And when he does do work, it sucks. And he
takes vacation all the time.
B. Fire him!
A. But NOOOO! I can’t fiiiiire him. He’s sending his student stipend back
to Randomland to support his orphaned little sister.
B. Right. But is he doing any work?
A. Uh… no… well, a little… though it’s usually late… and actually, I
have to replot all his graphs… and recheck the derivations because I’m not
sure they’re correct…
B. Fire him!
A. But I can’t just…
B. Fire him!
A. But…
B. You’re getting paid by a federal agency to carry out this research. If
you don’t get results, the program manager isn’t going to renew your
funding. No one is going to save you if you let your student slack off.
A. But…
B. FIRE HIM!!!
A. Umm… I’ll think about it… Anyway, you’re a big talker. Have you ever
fired anyone?
B. Well no, but I wish I had. My postdoc’s being a major pain in the ass… | s*****j 发帖数: 6435 | 2 这也叫笑话?
