But she's also not taking computer classes in her spare time, and work is approximately he same number of hours leaving approximately the same amount of spare time ... even if she were taking computer classes it would not be a reasonable comparison, because taking computer classes in the 1980s was a much more rare and advanced thing than taking them today. It'd have to be something more like quantum mechanics classes, or nanobiology classes, or, I don't even know.

- dexterdog 9y agoNobody has paid vacation. It's just factored into your salary.
- collyw 9y agoThen effectively the salary is higher than quoted for the 80's worker. And I know plenty of people in academia who don't take all of their vacation, and often work far longer hours than they are contracted for.
