The Periodic Table Of Excuses

Welcome to the world's most honest mining operation! What we're witnessing here is the rare self-aware chemistry dropout who's turned their academic failure into a career opportunity. They're mining in what appears to be a salt mine, but hilariously claiming it's "bromine or something" while openly admitting their chemistry knowledge evaporated faster than an unstable compound! It's the scientific equivalent of pointing at a bird and saying "that's a dinosaur or whatever, I flunked biology." The beauty of this meme is that salt mines are indeed composed of sodium chloride (NaCl), which is on the same periodic table column as bromine—just a few elements away! So close, yet so elementarily wrong! The hard hats suggest they've found gainful employment despite their academic shortcomings. Maybe failing chemistry was their actual career strategy all along?
