Sorry th hear about your problems. First things will have to come first. I have seen post docs being treated the same way here, across the Pond. Many here have to raise their own funds, doing research for the industry.

Sounds like when it rains it pours, it cant be just one thing wrong at a time, I hate it when life goes to crap. Good to see you again. Keep your stones, and keep your head up!

Thanked: 995I'll add my similar encouragements. I remember well a few GA positions where allegedly enlightened and well-educated professorial types acted more like slave owners.
It does not help that the air fairly crackles with fear propagated by the media over the issue du jour.

Hey Ron, I sure hope things get better sooner than later. We are all kind of toughing it out nowadays but I always think of the old gospel song,"I'm so glad that trouble don't last always." Hang in there Ron.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
