In academia, it's often so hard to get a job you'll take that place that offers you one, no matter where it is, so you can get started. The thing that bugs me is that article is just laid out in a painful way. It's like a fluff article that has just a few things to say but shreds the short version and fills out a much longer space.
- sequoia 6y agoI totally get it, my dad moved to Tennessee for a professorship, and I followed him a few years later while in highschool. It wasn't my first choice! But after a month or two of grousing about what a shitty little 2-bit town I thought Johnson City was as a highschooler, my dad suggested I chill out on criticizing the town and the people in it all the time, and I think that was good advice. While it may not have been a great "culture fit" for me, that doesn't make me better than the people who live there. I also would not move away from where I like to live for a job.
