9 months in, this shit sucks.

I’ve been rejected from places for having a degree. I’ve been rejected from places for not having a masters. I’ve received literally no word from several hundred applications.

I used to keep a spreadsheet of the jobs I applied to but I gave up on that because it was adding a substantial amount of time.

It was already bad and then the NIH cuts meant my entire industry is on fire because the private biomedical industry is a fiction made up as cover for giving a handful of people a ton of government money.
