Of course haha. Ours is a single-quad ICP. I'm always trying to get them to buy me the latest and greatest, and all mfg's offer double quad ICP-MS/MS machines now. We could get instant value out of it to quantify surface coverage of thiolated ligands (sulfur) on our nanoparticles, which would be huge for bioconjugation applications.

I lean towards the MBA more, since I learn better on the job with electrical stuff, but I feel like classroom based studies and stuff might be useful for more business oriented things, and I'm trying to break into upper management eventually, or even start my own firm eventually.
MBA crosses my mine from time to time as well. We have a good school for it locally too (UCSD - Rady). I have some mgmt, B2B, and customer'sales aspects to my job that I like as much as the technical stuff
