Life in a cleanroom

A cleanroom is a room within the laboratory with extra low concentration of dust and contaminating particles. To be in the cleanroom I have to dress up in a funny yellow suit to protect the environment from my dusty body. I can not bring normal paper inside, and I can not use my cellphone without a special bag to put it in, for example. Some times I work the whole day in here, but going in and out, dressing up in the funny yellow suit 15 times a day just to sit in front of my piece of lab equipment for hours without even beeing able to bring a book or a printed paper to read. But it gives me some time to think about stuff, it gives me a certain distance to the rest of the world. There is a window here, where I can see the rest of the laboratory from, I can see my colleagues running around in their white lab coats while I stand there in my funny yellow suit waiting for my laboratory processes to finish.
