logical phalluses posted:this is what i thought my first year of grad school too op. slowly it dawns on you that your "noble" contributions will almost certainly amount to no tangible benefit for anyone ever, your hypotheses are often wrong and if they are you'll have wasted years of your life and anyone successful in academia is an autist shithead with no life. in science in particular, it's a pretty lol-worthy system that's analogous to 19th century pre-union factories where the people actually doing the fundamental work to create the science are getting paid almost nothing (at least 75% of my time in grad school was spent in experimentation rather than learning anything, I had almost no courses because they needed me on the bench lol), expected to work for 60+ hours a week and not take weekends or holidays. when you're done, you can take an even shittier post-doc job with slightly better pay and after two or three of those when you fail to find a tenure-track position, you can kill yourself and end the misery

Goons have metamorphosed into a bunch of weird hateful bitter men who consider screwing around with a banks IT system so they can buy gadgets meaningful than self actualization and the quest for knowledge. All you guys are doing is chruning the work better people than you worked out at grad school.

Although it was used as a way if bettering oneself, now it's just another step to take in order to get a job and career that's a necessity in the us. it costs too much to ignore how you're going to pay for it after you're done, so people are naturally gravitating toward fields that have better earning potential
