Apparently I have more friends than I thought.
'Cause get what just popped into my inbox? A grant review request from an agency for a friend. And not a conference buddy friend. An actual, we-got-educated-together (not in that way, you sick bastard) friend.
I know, especially with the size of academia, that I would review a grant or paper for a friend eventually.
I just didn't think it would be this soon.
Or potentially have to be a negative review.
