@yazyh PhD students gripe because we work about 90 hours a week for between $0 and $20k/year. True we’re going somewhere, but everything has pros and cons. It’s nice for anyone to see a little humor? related to the more negative aspects of their lives!

“Piled Higher and Deeper” is utterly common- it’s basically “Cathy” for? grad students.
