I am half way done with mine, which means I only have 3/4 left to write, then I will be 90% done.
lol bruh. I couldn’t get my job without my PhD because of bullshit elitism, but fuck if I give a damn about 1-electron transfers n shit. I make money by handling money and writing code. Worked out handsomely for me.
Like Nas says: go legit. Believe in yoself. Live the life you deserve.
As someone in an important position once said to me, having a PhD shows that you have frustration tolerance.
I don’t have an advanced degree but that’s higher education in general, isn’t it? Just a bunch of hoops to jump through for the sole purpose of proving that you’re willing and able to jump through hoops. And yet nobody has ever asked to see my diploma in 20+ years of working.
When I did my master’s thesis and it was like this non stop for that last year. In my thesis defense I could tell my advisors wanted me to do another year of work, I was so absolutely done at that point, I didn’t want to spend another cent on that degree and really was ready to walk away from it. They gave me a passing grade anyways because it looks better for the school to have me graduate in their statistics then if I had quit.
…and no one evvver read it…
That’s not true! That’s not true at all!
I had a colleague proofread it and my PI also read it once… probably.
