Anyone fancy working in academia?

Says the Brummie loser, eh?

You have neither the attitude nor the ability to succeed in that environment.

You would know, of course, with your noddy degree.
I still can't believe you posted your modules here with what seemed to be pride.

Actually I have got 3 noddy degrees, one of which is with distinction.

I have demonstrated publicly that I am not ashamed to post modules that I had (granted some of them were rubbish, but others like maths and economics were pretty solid).

Why did not you post yours? You either have no pride or just scared - not suprising really.

Assuming you are being serious, would you lecture? In what field?

Oh come on!

It has to be Statistics

Whatever. Point is I don't have to work for the rest of my life if I chose not to do so. Just trying to find something fulfilling ....
Maybe I should just become a vintner in France?
Any other ideas for the good life, anyone?

I have an MBA (piss easy) and a BSc in Computer Systems Engineering.
Can't be arsed to look up the modules for the latter - it was 20 years ago.

I struggle to equate lecturing maths with the good life.

Have some aspirations man! Driving an Aygo and living in a bedsit above a kebab shop in the East End does not mean you have arrived.

Have some children. That will sort you out.
