      academia has been poisoned by MBAs so much that you only teach 10% of the time and the other 90% is doing pointless admin. it’s almost exactly like a customer service job, at least for adjuncts/entry-level lecturers

      The duality of humanity right here. I hated academics and I’m way happier facing clients. Because even if they’re being unreasonable, they’re still paying me more than a living wage which is more than I could say about my advisor
