Model Answer

i want to take a moment to talk to you about the procedures that you follow in the lab. since we are in the chemistry lab, i have watched you several times, not taking any safety measures while dealing with the chemicals and experiments. i am actually concerned a small accident or an incident could not only life threaten you, but others in the lab and the entire building. it's important to be careful about what you're doing and who have the right knowledge. i hope you will follow this. thank you.
