not pictured:

• a fume hood with a definitely safe amount of items in it that is absolutely not interfering with air flow
• the drawer full of stuff from a grad student who defended in the 90's
• things in regular use labeled "DO NOT USE"
• magic amulets and talismans placed on top of machines
• a totally sane amount of centrifuge balance tubes
• binders that exist solely to occasionally fall off the shelf all at once
• "don't touch them they're my emotional support expired reagents"
• "don't touch them we'll use these empty pipette tip boxes for something probably maybe"
• the full sharps container that can't be disposed of because There's Something In There That Shouldn't Be™
• the haz waste that can't be disposed of because it's Too Expensive™
• a lab safety officer who hasn't experienced a positive emotion since 2007
