would you prefer to be teaching for 5 minutes a week, have new hot first-years every year and holidays as long as dirk diggler's cock; or would you rather work 8-7 every day in a shitty office for the rest of your life?

People at the real jobs make actual money.

This is my point though. Regardless of how much management experience someone may have, can they pass on that experience and skill? I don't think they can. If you disagree with that then we will have to agree to disagree.

I've had some fantastic teachers too; I don't think that's a hard and fast rule.

So in your opinion objective learning is somehow more intellectual than subjective? That memorization of fact trumps abstract thinking in daily life?

Math and science have the least to do with memorization and the most to do with creativity but you haven't been that far.

Well then we'll have to take that route. I've taken one management class and I fell back on the lessons from that class routinely when I had my own staff, and even wish that I had taken more.

tenured professor pay isn't anything to sneeze at. especially if you're talking how much time you have to do work for.

But of course you could venture into far higher paying jobs, like in the financial mar- oh wait.

Well then obviously Zild > Lebezniatnikov, since I evidently "bs'ed my way to a degree."

I'd rather be challenged daily.

I can't believe I didn't see it before. You've obviously failed humanitarian subjects before and that's why you're so down on them. You're pissed off because you see them as bullshit and you're frustrated that you still couldn't do well.

Looking at the professors in my department I wouldn't want to be one. They work much harder for a lot less than they would in industry.
