As much of my work is based on scientific research I have been in contact with many different research institutes over the last years. I have received a lot of support but even when they could not help me I have always experienced an open and respectful attitude towards me as a reaction to the openness and respect I was offering. Now, here in Bergen I addressed the Institute of Marine Research (IMR): I introduced me and my work, wrote a letter of intent and sent a cv as well as selected work documentation – digital and printed. After a short and admittedly friendly meeting with one of the scientists I was forwarded to the Department of Communication. I do not know what they do there but it is definitely not communicating with others… maybe they have a good time communicating among each other!? My polite attempts by email and by phone to ask for some sort of response were repeatedly ignored over the last 5 weeks. I do not have a problem with a negative answer concerning a request of mine but I expect a professional reaction from a national institute that even affords an extra department designated to communication – and not the waste of my precious residency time.
