Very exited to have gone live on the website for the "A Picture of Health" Pop-Up Exhibition that I managed and Creatively Produced with @MRC_LMS@The_MRC and @csm_news@artsciencecsm at @ElephantMag. Check it out https://t.co/33ToHCimrQ Big thanks to all involved #ArtSci#Health
The orange tape represents the current Explainer wage, the green tape is how much of a pay rise they're asking for, and the top of the pole is THE MUSEUM DIRECTOR'S SALARY. Even I wasn't aware the actual extent of this injustice.
These are some of the most giving, loving, passionate about giving science to the public people I have EVER known- they want a better world for all of us, and they need to be able to accomplish that without worrying about making rent next month.
I support the strike @sciencemuseum today. These people put their heart & soul into their jobs, the least that can happen is they be paid fairly
Also from a business angle the low pay makes zero sense. It costs much more to train new staff than to keep your already great ones.
This morning the Ri was taken over by paper cranes. Every member of staff was greeted by an origami bird at their desk and once opened, a secret message was revealed! Our lovely Dani, who works in the YSC, made them all "just because". Small acts have BIG impact people. 🙌
Q: What do @Daniellezelli and I do when a school cancels but we're already set up for the workshop??
A: We make weird alien 👽 eye balls obviously
