The Ugly Duckling. There was a video that turned this fable into a horror story. From that video and others, I learned not to mess with others.

The video is excellent once we get past the distracting Japanese cartoon snippets. I've been submitting my resume to online positions with no success for 3-4months. The networking angle seems obvious now, and I will try this way.

Thanks for the video! Very informative! What is your full-time job? 👊😊👊

No other job has tenure. End it.

Be a little cautious with the numbers. Some of the enrollment numbers are from Ghost students. My college got hit fall 2024 -- inflated enrollment big time. Look up what happened to California community colleges - nearly 20% of their students were ghosts.

I do just that...tell them I know they will not read. I give them total summaries of the chapters. They still dont take advantage of the summaries, and encourage use of AI, I actually show them the tools in AI they can use to help. Some will some won't all I can do is keep on trying. Your content is very helpful. Thank You!

Thank You, any suggestions for getting the technical readers going?

I love this! I recently became an adjunct and trying to pivot. I feel under the allure of prestige in academia and art musuems. I was met with disslusionment and unlike the gatekeepers who have trust funds and partners, I have neither. I regret taking this job, but given the economy and how rigid/biased employers are, I could not afford a resume gap and moved back home. I also rejected a curator job, becuase the pay was unlivable at $40k. This part time gig became a full time gig, while I’m being sent to teach dual (high school) kids in rural settings. I was met with disillusionment, with my art history and fashion background. I was this close to pivoting with a remote job as a grants writer, the salary was very doable with benefits. I find academia to be very stifling, conservative, and dusty. Many of my colleagues have full time jobs at high school that pay them $60k a year and the adjuncting is supplement for ego, visibility, and credibility. I’ve been underemployed ever since I graduated grad school, I’m 31 and and feel stuck/hopless. Pivoting, pivoting, pivoting. Prestige and romantic theories are nothing for me. I love your channel because many academics do not disclose these harsh realities, instead were met with unwritten rules, gatekeepers, and secret agendas. :/ I want to quit lol.

So many people think college isn't worth it and they end up making echo chambers together. They might be in for a rude awakening in the coming years.

*_Are you considering college? Or do you regret going (or maybe just your major)??_*

Do you know what to look for on a syllabus?

I am not a naive speaking of English but I really want to be adjunct job in psychology or religion. What is your advice? Thank you!

*_Everyone has an opinion - I have the numbers (and reasons) why you should consider college if it's possible!_*

What was your first job? And did you like it??

*_Accelerate compound interest the smart way! How do you make time = money math work for you?_*

oh penny stocks can be fun, with FU money. At 16 I almost ended up owning an airline (this was not in the US). Did eventually loose my entire investment (about $500 in 1986).

Good vide. Surprised there aren't more views.

Hi, how are you? Would you like to start a new UA-cam channel together and make money from it? I'll handle all the channel's work, including video editing. Your only job will be to provide voiceovers. I'll send you the script, and you can record it with your phone in your nice voice and send it back to me. I'll edit the video with your voice and then publish it on the channel

*_Fearing 'it's too late' is a killer in investing and do-overs! What scares YOU the most about investing?_*

Thank you for making time to post

*_Thank you - and what have you learned that will make you better in the new year?_*

Did you miss it? What are you gonna do about it??

Im 62 and wanna teach construction project management .. does that make any sense

Thanks to AI, a take-home exam is now a complete joke. It's not skills-based, when all someone has to do is take a photo of the exam, and the computer generates the entire solution with no intellectual input from the student. That is, unless you can out-wit the AI when writing the exam, and write an exam that only a human can pass.

Just submitted my final set of grades as I end my teaching career of 43 years, 25 in higher ed. Just done with the whole thing 😏

I really love your channel,because my father was also a college professor, aeronautics, sending my greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭

*_Do you LOVE take home exams?_*

UA-cam is how most newcomers to the workforce actually learn how to do their job - not in college or university - what's your experience?

Liberal nerd,

I think you have a booger in your nose

As an employer I will not be hiring anyone who went to college. Because indoctrinated people like this or what's wrong with schools. College is just a big scam.

Started to hate teaching.. and hate getting old 😊

Im 62 an pathetically pursuing a higher ed teaching career

Im 62, pathetically exploring higher ed teaching opportunities in Canada

Do you know a GOOD nonprofit?

God has me in my profession for a reason. I know this, but it's definitely not much money, however, I love my students and I love teaching.

I only teach two classes and I have two kids at home. It's crazy how little it pays but my husband supplements what I lack and I have a second job. I do love what I do though.

They are running their colleges and universities on the backs of adjuncts. Regular faculty should stop this but they don’t because they only care about themselves and they think they are superior

That hasn’t changed in two decades.

*_If you DO use the syllabus to plan your work, are you the only one?_*

I never did not read the syllabus. I always started the final project as soon as possible. Then, if I had questions, the professor had time to answer questions, and any revisions could be made and the paper typed and turned asap.

The best decision I ever made was to stop pursuing a career in music after my bachelor’s degree and start a career in software engineering. This would have been me.

Close all the Universities. It's an obsolete system. Universities are full of administrators who make tons of money and do no work.

Bluntly, this comes down to an overproduction of academics, especially in a shrinking market.

Very Interesting

This man really tells it like it is, academia is way more brutal than its often portrayed in pop culture. My heart goes out to all those academics who didn't know how cutthroat the system actually was until it was too late. All we can do is enter the field as prepared as we can be.

They did that, though I was taught not to lie. Perhaps, I ought to learn cya….don’t know if I can do that! I guess I can try!🥳

Excellent advice!

Phenomenal video!

Incredible insight
