GO-GO-GADGET....feels thread... :(

>bump

I have sorrow for that man. How can someone expect to go straight from uni their dream job, they need to build, it can take years and years to get there after uni. Maybe the universities need to explain to these delusional students that the world isn't going to bow at their feet the moment they graduate.

I bet he measured his own velocity as he was falling

The only time he got to use his PHD

Sorry, i meant I have NO sorrow for that man

>competed a degree at reading university

I tend to blame parents for shit like this.

I used to date a british girl that can't accept the word "no." No matter how many times, nor how impossible the circumstances.
We even had feelings for each other, and could have made it work.
>hence feels

I'll greentext if you feel like?

Might be a bit long.

Go ahead.

>31 yo doctorate
>straight out of uni
dude had like 5 years with his degree, wasn't even a fucking feminist arts degree or some shit and he could only work at call centre
Might as well could have dropped out of school and do the same shit, but have enough saved up for a house instead of a million dollars loan

I'm from reading. The uni there is as shit as the rest of the town.

fucking lucky cunt, ive been a neet for a long time and my life is bullshit but i cant do it to my family.

Bruh, you want feels?

I cant get pizza in this country, and anything with dairy is nonexistent.

Milk costs me 6usd a liter and has to come from half a providence away

I still work hard, telling myself it's in honor of the loved ones I've lost.

Life is wasted on the oblivious.

Try living in some conservative old victorian place which will never amount to anything being a neet.

and even them fucking you over. country life is a real life thing here.

> mfw Java code monkey at government job
> mfw I am probably earning more than the average physics phd and I don't even have my diploma mill bachelor's degree yet

why cant you get a decent job as phd in physics in GB?

...

There's no Cromwell Street in Kensington. I used to work off Cromwell Road though.

Cuz britbongs, go to germoney or austria, maybe even france.

but why? im german and if you studied anything even remotely useful you can pretty much choose your job..

that's the biggest problem with the university mill - unless you're from a top tier Uni then getting a PhD will most of the time just harm you. This kids go into Uni expecting to get a degree/PhD and go straight into the best careers ever.

To anybody at Uni in the same situation: take it from me - a Masters in Physics and MSci in Biomedical. Eng. : Broaden your horizons. Great careers and jobs dont fall out of the sky. Read read read. Learn as many skills as possible and keep you eyes open.

I did lots of online courses next to my Physics degree about personal finance, corporate finance, book keeping, real estate investment and managed to get a part-time job next to Uni in Real Estate investment consulting that pays me 40$/hr.

Be smart about it, don't just bank on a degree to get places. Absolutely do a PhD if it's your dream study field, but never just do it or take on one because "there's a position open".

the problem about getting a PhD are manifold, but the main issues are:
1) A PhD often overqualifies you for many jobs. Why would a company hire a PhD guy that will probably have to get the same amount of training as any other BSc or MSc and still demand more pay than others
2) PhDs are highly specialised. Doing a PhD in Physics could be a job like "Researching the nano-scale structure mesophase-transitions induced by temperature and hydration gradients of phytantriol". What in the fuck are you gonna do with that. Unless you find a company that needs an expert in that chemical you studied, you're fucked. (Phytantriol is a bad example, because it's used everywhere - but still)

Even in Germany you'll face those problems. And as an Austrian I'd never recommend you go there as a Physicist.

Research fields, uni teacher, underpaid.
Now another problem appears, if Austria is like France, subventions for reasearch in uni are more and more hard to get.
Get a degree they said, the highest one they said, you'll get a job and be happy they said.

>want to into programming
>join amateur game team.

You are retarded. Are you still here ?

Pretty much that

and this

Never put your job before your life

You work to live, you don't live to work

I had these wonderful delusions if I worked hard and poured everything I had into it then it would be worthwhile.

Spend more time with my living family, while everyone around me seems to go on to good careers.

>fall velocity.

shit, even i know that, and im a high school drop out.

poor sap though. he thought an education would get him a job in 2017.

top kek.

>going for Ph.D. in Physiology
>realize the job market isn't good for PhDs
>decide to terminate with masters in june
>learning mass spec, flow cytometry, and other lab techniques on the university's dime with my remaining months
>already have jobs offers ranging between $80k-$100k

Its like why the fuck even get a Ph.D. anymore

Indeed. I had to work in a call centre for 2yrs after I graduated, but have since worked my way upto to a good job in a bank now.

Indeed. There is no point in a PhD 99% of the time, unless you want to stay in academia.

>>Good job
>>Bank
>>Such expectations

That's an interesting question.
Here's the flip side of this, one of my co-workers has a phd in skin electroporation. Companies are practically begging her to join. Too bad that despite all her knowledge she's retarded and still works for 1k€ in a shit company

Fairly familiar with that, I was doing sharp electrode electrophysiology on mouse blood vessels.

i was looking at beta amyloid and how it affected sk/ik channel leak and its effect on membrane potential/inhibition of vascular autoregulation.
it has the potential to blow alzhemiers wide open.

my boss I work for is a huge asshole and didn't listen to me and wanted to go in other directions despite the fact that i had a bunch of data to back up my hunch, as well as a bunch of papers that proved my experimental design to be sound.

so i resigned, compiled all my prelim data as well as my skeleton papers i had drafted and sent them to other labs that did similar work at different Unis.
Because fuck that guy, i want alzheimers to get cured and i dont need my name on a paper, i just want to see peoples lives improve.

So should I be scared to go into debt to try and further my education? I'm a shit student and I learn slowly from some very bad and untreated short and long term memory loss. My handwriting is also extremely poor and slow so notes are hard.

I wanted to get into welding but my beads were always shit. I started on Codecademy but I wasn't really learning with it. I personally think I'm best suited to public speaking but have 0 idea how to get started and I'm starting to develop a stutter.

The finance/mathematics/investment banking courses looked good; they had a "dealing room" too. Never seen that anywhere else.

Have you considered getting that whole memory issue looked at?

Maybe you should try not being Chinese.

You are a dying breed, mad respects, Sup Forumsro.

No one believes me! I've said for years I had problems but nothing was ever done, my mother has memory issues and so does my father so I don't understand what's so unfounded about me having it fucking amplified.

I don't have a car to drive myself to get checked either, and my roommates cars are both fubar and can't make long trips. One of them has had large bit of engine fall out and he is still using it. Fuck life dude, this isn't fair.

> Non-neuroscience b/ro

What does "sk/ik"(channel), stand for?

They are potassium leak channels that are responsible for regulating the excitability of electircally reactive cells (in the case of the ones we were studying, they were smooth muscle cells).

Ahh. Thank you

No problem

I love you.

How do you get over her? The girl who was your best friend and lover for half a decade. I know it's hard, but it wasn't super hard for her. I'm just trying to not be a fucking loser. I'm doing a lot better than I was, but nights like this I still get fucked up. I know one day it'll be better, and she'll be just a faded happy memory but is there anything I can do to speed that process along?

I have a huge interest in studying to become a pathologist or biology researcher but I had a shitty poorfag life growing up and didn't care about school until like a semester into college when I found out it doesn't have to be garbage. Still anxious and depressed and thinking about the future is really daunting cuz sometimes I think that the research i want to do would not benefit from my employment at all

...

I know that feel. Master's degree and I'm a manager at a janitorial company. I don't hate my job, but dammit if it doesn't suck being unable to find work that I am properly qualified for.

Welding is a useful skill, try different types like arc and Mig on pieces of scrap metal to get your work neater. I don't know if you have access to a place to practice but on a CV/resume it proves to an employer that you're hands on.

You can also look into underwater welding, a friend of my father did that.
Hard job, 2-3weeks full time job ( incl saturday/sunday) then 1or2 weeks off.
But pretty good money, have a look online.

You didn't try hard enough then.
I also have a masters and found work in my field less than a month after graduating

to be a doctor

>went to college
>went to trade school
>worked hvac, welding, plumbing and electrical
>cant find a stable job in any of those anywhere on the west coast
Im trying to keep my hopes up, but i park cars. I had to move to get this job. It doesnt help that i hate myself so much i constantly sabotage myself everywhere but on the job, but at least ive got a ....seasonal job... holy shit kill me.

Most companies want a PhD as a prerequisite for any decent job that's not quality control (for my field at least...chemistry)

>sabotage
West coast is an awfully competitive place, but with those qualifications it sounds like you wouldn't have trouble finding work elsewhere

As a guy with a bachelors degree in civil engineering who is also 31 and working in a call center I cant help but feel the universe is trying to tell me something.

Life is meaningless and no matter what you do, you die and lose everything.

:)

:/

:(

Maybe you should have applied for only civil engineering jobs and not call center jobs

Several years unsuccessfully doing so led me to apply for anything and everything within driving distance.

That sucks user, are you unable to relocate for a job?

...

You are a true champion, my friend.

do it

Wtf is this bullshit?
>Cold January morning

How many people do you know, who go too early to work and CAN listen to this dude? Most people using metros arrive just in time. No time for listening.

Coldness and being surrounded by commuters does not increase the urge to wait and listen.

I loved drake and josh

>>completed a degree at Reading University
>mfw americans need to go to university to learn reading

He is obviously brit you retard

This is retarded

We are not getting the full story here.

He had a PhD and undergrad w/ honours at the very least. He was not in the slightest bit weak minded or willed, as those are among the most arduous years of one's life. That's between 7-9 years of study, with 5 of those being intensive as fuck.

The user you replied to obviously never set foot on a university.

Underrated

Lmfao what a shit weld. Plates not even beveled
