    I did two post docs and they were great. I learned many valuable things, foremost among them that it was time to get the fuck out of academia.

    Seriously I regret nothing, I had a great time.

      Every time I talk to my friends in academia, I’m grateful that I was just smart enough to know that I’m too stupid for academia.

      The best was when you heard how the Professors got their job back in the 70s-80s.

      They generally just finished a PhD and were given a position!
