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.

Padding expense account
• Feigning expertise in a field about which you actually know very little.
ReplyDelete• Hiding behind your past glories as a graduate student or postdoc despite having transitioned into industry.
• Stinking up the common-use microwaves with homemade food that asserts certain ethnic tastes at the expense of others.
• Exploiting every opportunity to express sycophantic obedience to an oppressive, slightly unhinged, pointy-haired boss.
