I would say the fact that you have to multitask every day! I get distracted by all the tasks I have to do and sometimes I get more stressed that I should!
It has to be the paperwork… not the interesting stuff like reading and writing scientific papers… I mean the mundane, boring stuff tied to how the university operates like timetables, examination papers, class lists, etc. etc. etc. …BORING!
I have to work with many different scientists across the world. All have their own schedule. Sometimes it is hard to get things done fast. We should not keep our new findings unpublished for long time; as others are also doing the similar research in their labs. I do not like this competition in science and I find it quite challenging.
