I don’t buy this as a blanket statement. It highly depends on what sort of educational track you’re pursuing.
At least in the US, there are many graduate level healthcare degrees out there that require you to pay for them. Yet they net a well paying career. Ex: physician associate, anesthesia assistant
If you’re specifically referring to research-focused graduate degrees and not job-focused graduate degrees, then I agree with you.
Yeah exactly. I get that people are outraged at a lot of things, but I think many people calling for a strike don’t realize what is at stake for a majority of people. You would have to do some serious organization among each individual workplace in order for it to be successful.
I’m guessing that’s why it seems that many times when I see people protesting or calling for strikes, it seems to be students. Since they often don’t yet have things like a full time job, a family to support, etc. they have far less on the line and far less potential consequences for doing so.
To be clear, I’m absolutely not against the idea of protesting/striking, etc. I’m just trying to say that it’s a difficult thing to navigate, and not a simple “no brainier” like many people on the internet seem to think it is.
Considering a majority of my coworkers are brainwashed into the MAGA cult, I’d lose my job if I was the only one striking lmao. I have a really good job and it’s hard to find another like the one I have now because I work in a very very small field. So I’m not personally interested in doing that. Sorry.
I mean, there are still multiple large and/or long standing instances out there. It’s not like there is only a single one of them. I would just generally encourage people to utilize those instead. And if they choose a smaller instance that they should be aware of the risks.
Until the admin of a small instance decides to randomly leave the project one day and your account is gone forever. I’ve seen it happen multiple times and it’s why I go for bigger or at the very least, long standing instances.
