This is just to say
that I had a busy morning
and I was not able to blog today
Forgive me
The hours are short
And real work is plentiful
with apologies to William Carlos Williams.
(back tomorrow AM with today's posts -- I promise)
1. HELPING CHEMISTS FIND JOBS IN A TOUGH MARKET. 2. TOWARDS A QUANTITATIVE UNDERSTANDING OF THE QUALITY OF THE CHEMISTRY JOB MARKET.
What's the job market like for chemists? Dude -- it's always bad.*
How bad is it? How the heck should I know? Quantifying the chemistry job market is what this blog is about. That, and helping chemists find jobs.

"And real work is plentiful"...
ReplyDeleteHey CJ, ever consider making extra money via blogging? I wouldn't stop visiting if you had some ads on your blog.
much depend upon the chemist covered with dew beside the white chickens
ReplyDeleteA6:20p: Yeah, I guess I've thought about it, but who would advertise? I have a really hard time imagining anyone who would want to... Thanks for the thought, though.
ReplyDeleteTotallysynthetic still has ads and look how often he updates. also i think thechemblog did? anyway i imagine you've got as wide an audience as the field would support, so if Aldrich or other suppliers are supporting anyone, it should be you!
ReplyDeleteMaybe those folks that sell the "Pfired" stuff.
ReplyDeletecareer consultant, financial consultants and moving companies may be something that would share your target market.
ReplyDeleteoh, and some chemical recruiting agencies are always looking for new leads for people who need their services
