What this is about...

After over a decade in the "real world," I have spent almost two decades in education. Prior to entering academics, I had held the field in such high esteem. I thought it was the paragon of ethics and morals. In many instances, yes, it is! And in a lot of instances, it is unbelievably bad. This blog is to document the things I have experienced. All true stories. My posts will mostly deal with the hiring and firing ends of education. I have applied for many, many jobs in education. I have interviewed for many, many jobs. While I have not been fired from any job in academics, I have worked with many people who should be fired but don't lose their jobs. And this is where the frustration comes in.
