This. It doesn't surprise me at all that someone with this attitude has trouble getting job offers.

- auggierose 13y agoLol. I bet you 1000 to 1 that you don't have a PhD.
- joelgrus 13y agoI dropped out of my PhD program when I realized that 1. I didn't want to be an academic, and 2. Having a PhD wasn't going to help me get a non-academic job, and 3. Grad school kind of sucks. But, as a result, I have a lot of friends who finished their PhDs, and the idea that they are metaphorically "Porsches" compared to the many talented non-PhD developers and data scientists I've worked with is laughable.
