The
CNN Money list of the top jobs in the US. There IS indeed a lot to be said for the flexibility of scheduling many of us have, and the rather open attitudes towards clothing choices.

We only got a B for stress? But I worked really hard on my job! Why didn't I get an A?!
ReplyDeleteTehee!
Oh, and btw, "assistant professor, liberal arts" is also listed near the top in the related article "Big jobs that pay really badly"!!!
When a friend of mine sent me this, I told her that CNN/Money must have made a typo--it should have said "tenured" professor.
ReplyDeleteLOL, Dr. V. Remember, hard work by itself isn't enough... blah blah. You have to EARN your A for stress!
ReplyDeleteIanqui, Indeed, tenured makes a world of difference for most people.
