Eden was a fast learner but having her entire chemistry career staked on it was more than a little nerve-wracking. Would she really be okay here with a boss like this?
They had passed other labs on the way in and it looked like all of the other research teams had three or four research assistants. It seemed that Zim really didn't have a history of playing nice since he had only been able to hold on to one before she got hired.
