...of one acquaintance of mine:
$180K in debt, 3 years spent applying to tenure-stream jobs to no avail, and now a $25/hour contract job editing academic books when he can get it.
Honestly, it's almost as if he's a highly educated on-call servant to the very same people who put him into debt.
They get the stable job, a decent income, and respect, not to mention the ability to write shittily and have people like him clean up their mess.
There really are very few things more monstrous than tenured professors, or at least the actual tenured professors who create the general image of tenured professors.
They're totally an out-of-touch, privileged elite who deserve a smackdown.
