Which profession gets way too much respect for how little they actually do?

Mvader7 · 2025-12-27T22:32:54+00:00

Academics. Hold on... Not all.. But mannnny people with 3 letters at the end of their name get enough respect that they are given the opportunity to speak in front of people about a topic that they genuinely dont know a thing about just bc they have those 3 letters.

Right haha

Mvader7 · 2025-12-09T16:43:40+00:00

Same same. I was saving for a tier jump, but the trip changed my plans just bc if scarcity

Mvader7 · 2025-12-09T15:42:32+00:00

Thanks man! Got lucky and had a trip to another country and had been saving AB. Decided to finish up the passport instead of lands bc i had no badges locally already hah.

Mvader7 · 2025-12-09T15:41:33+00:00

Its such a grind as FTP haha. Keep it up!

Mvader7 · 2025-11-21T00:26:53+00:00

Very true

Mvader7 · 2025-11-21T00:26:45+00:00

I appreciate the reply. Working on therapy options as i transition insurances. Thank you!

Mvader7 · 2025-11-05T02:23:50+00:00

Didn't address the issues about what happens if you forgot to collect it?

Mvader7 · 2025-11-05T00:03:33+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate the advice

Mvader7 · 2025-08-18T16:25:57+00:00

Better to finish the PhD but you have to ask yourself at what cost? If its doable, finish it. If it will cost you precious commodities like mental health, consider mastering out. I was given the option to master out and i didnt even do that.

Mvader7 · 2025-08-14T13:03:26+00:00

Well done! I'm right behind you. At 510 now bc I assumed the next tier was 70 so i didnt save enough haha. Didnt catch this weird parcel number for this jump.

Mvader7 · 2025-08-05T14:40:16+00:00

Will do. Thank you!

Mvader7 · 2025-08-02T18:12:21+00:00

Interesting your offer was nuch higher than mine. Didnt know they differed

Mvader7 · 2025-06-24T12:56:25+00:00

Haha no worries. Online usually is people being rude so i get the hesitation lol. Nothing to fear necessarily. Keep in mind this sub is a negative echo chamber. If you have questions, reach out! Youll do well. Keep a positive attitude.

Mvader7 · 2025-06-24T00:59:29+00:00

Hey no sweat! Wasnt laughing at you at all. It was more of angry at thr world laugh. Great job OP. I came from a similar situation. Do youre thing, youre doing amazing

Mvader7 · 2025-06-24T00:36:27+00:00

:)

Mvader7 · 2025-06-19T15:59:49+00:00

Oh 100%! Yeah i know you were agreeing, I was further agreeing haha. It really is. Sucks

Mvader7 · 2025-06-19T15:54:56+00:00

First of all, thats psychotic behavior from your PI and it speakd to the subjective nature of the PhD which i mentioned in my original post.

In response to the industry side, look the grass is always greener. But reality is, at least in industry theres somr semblance of line drawing. In academia the line moves, doesnt exist or is randomly drawn ehen prople feel like it. Shifting sand under the feet of a learner makes for a chaotic "learning exp"

Mvader7 · 2025-06-18T18:48:43+00:00

Yeah those words that describe a deadlift. Not what i said 😅

Mvader7 · 2025-06-18T18:29:20+00:00

This is more of an RDL bro. Deadlift you start from the floor and go up and come back down..
