Socially awkward british nerd with Tall Poppy Syndrome regrets getting her PHD because it means talking to other people and trying to write up a paper and talk to other people to create said paper. Plus it's financially and spiritually draining her.TLDR?
Consequentially, I work with someone who just started working for my company, who decided to not get her PHD. She realized you don't make money and the work is worse than working in retail.
