...Or is academia one of the last bastions of restrictive practices?...
A friend of mine left the private sector to become a lecturer about five years ago.
He was quite a hard worker, and could not believe what an easy life he had at university.
Applying his private sector discipline, he was able to hold down his laughable lecturing non-job, as well as write books, run a small business and pursue an interest in local politics.
He told me he never saw some 'colleagues' from one week to the next.
What do these clowns do, apart from draw a decent salary at public expense?
My mate couldn't tell you.
I don't doubt some lecturers put a decent shift in, but there's an awful lot more who are just plain idle.
