In what? Just curious. I'm not going to kill my wife and marry the doctor. Anyone with a PHD can be called doctor . More power to them. Someone has to keep the lights on.

An educated woman working to make others educated. I never cared for school until a 10th grade English teacher intervened. She wanted to spark my interest in reading and had me read The Good Earth. I was hooked and she knew it. The way I see it the people who earn PHD's are not doing it for money, although it does allow one to drive a better car.

Unless you follow up your PhD by getting a job in an insurance call centre :P

You must live on the wrong side of the pond. Our states beg for teachers and professors.

But don't want to pay them shit, and closely monitor that they teach the acceptable rhetoric.

The beach counties pay the big bucks. South Carolina pays best for any job. They steal our professionals with money. Hard to imagine. Plus there is no sales tax on grocery store food. Some of my friends live just over the line in NC and work in SC. They save big time on state income tax.

...because they are expected to work longer hours for less pay in a high-stress job... and then be "held accountable" for crap scores in flawed standardized testing regimens. Far better input-to-pay value working in a call center or grocery store...
