Tally to Rally

I had my LS2 for the first time today. And of course, I get stuck with the two people who, well... *sigh*, I'm not going to even say. The girl is ok, but the guy... shit.

We had to "analyze the birth weight" (meaning: pull randomnly labeled wood chips out of a bucket) of a controled and experimental population (ours lived by a nuclear power plant). Yeah, so we had to take these random weights and tally them up next to a label on a chart, 100 times. So the guy started doing this before me for the experimental, and a few minutes later I started for the experimental. He had no method really. He wasn't keeping track and GAH! ok ok. So he always counting and recounting his tallies in the most inefficient way possible, and omg I'll stop talking about this because no one has any idea what is going on, and God I hate it when I'm sitting there for 3 minutes watching him struggle to count up talley marks, and doing it this weird way that doesn't make sense..... it was so annoying. I just stared blankly at him the whole time thinking this is going to be a long quarter. And in the end, he didn't even count it right. He had 110, and I called him on it. yes. I called him on it. Right when he was done I told him it was wrong. I am such a bitch. God-DAMN. I kicked his ass at Tallying.
