    Did you explain to your boss that Student's T is an ANOVA for only 2 samples and that for ANOVA you have to do Tukey's HSD (which is really not that hard in R)?

There were underlying issues that went further than just the type of test to be using, I meant it more as an example. Also, while I oh-so cherish my time spent in R, I'm not doing anything that necessitates that level of control, nor is that particular skill (working in R, not stats knowledge) set something that needs to be maintained.

I also spent a bunch of time messing around in LaTeX, thinking that would come in handy later, or at least be interesting enough to merit working in, but in the end I have a fancy-looking CV that is really annoying to update.

I use Word. I'm so glad biology doesn't have a bizarre practice of using LaTeX for everything. What the fuck, physics.
