She has the highest priority using the machines.
She has access to all chemicals at all times; others don't.
She works on the supervisors projects; others have their own projects.
She doesn't do any of the dirty lab-work; others have to do everything themselves.
She never gets into trouble; others get into trouble at least once a week.

It's hard to ignore and not get totally pi**d off by it.

My supervisor (32) is dating his student (23). It all started when she was doing honours in our lab, and now she is doing a PhD with him. And ofcourse, she is treated like a princess...my university in Australia allows this. Has anyone else experienced supervisor/student relationships, and is this allowed at your university?

WORK TO LIVE, DO NOT LIVE FOR WORK!

Fully understand what you are going through...almost broke up my relationship with my partner because of PhD work stress. My supervisor even made us write down what time we came in, what time we took for lunch and what time we left, on a form on the office door. So far for trust.
