I am half way done with mine, which means I only have 3/4 left to write, then I will be 90% done.
I never felt so more attacked, but also related to at the same time.
A thesis is not there to be written. It is there to be stressed about.
…and no one evvver read it…
That’s not true! That’s not true at all!
I had a colleague proofread it and my PI also read it once… probably.
My boss read the first chapter I turned in, decided I know what I am doing, gave me some basic feedback, and has completely checked out since then lol.
You had colleagues with the time to proofread yours?! Lucky…
Ditto.
Thank god. I cannot verify the quality of that trash based on my mental state by the time it was over. I hope no one ever reads mine.
Or at least someday I hope to overcome the PTSD and be able to read it again. In an ideal world I’d like to release an updated version/errata.
Guys, I put GW and SW instead of GP and SP and it makes me die inside.
don’t worry guys, it’s ok, they just have to write the thesis, that’s it.
lol bruh. I couldn’t get my job without my PhD because of bullshit elitism, but fuck if I give a damn about 1-electron transfers n shit. I make money by handling money and writing code. Worked out handsomely for me.
Like Nas says: go legit. Believe in yoself. Live the life you deserve.
As someone in an important position once said to me, having a PhD shows that you have frustration tolerance.
This angle would be akin to saying that a PhD degree is like having tattoos and other body modifications on your brain and probably on your cardiac muscle.
I don’t have an advanced degree but that’s higher education in general, isn’t it? Just a bunch of hoops to jump through for the sole purpose of proving that you’re willing and able to jump through hoops. And yet nobody has ever asked to see my diploma in 20+ years of working.
And you could be doing fine, but still get kicked out due to politics, your PI getting canned, etc… ugh.

I don’t understand why college students stress out so much over writing a single sentence. 🤷🏻♂️ /s
I had coworker slip on ice and break her laptop containing the only copy of her 90% complete thesis
She spent an additional 10 grand sending it in for data recovery and was not successful in retrieving it

One year for a master thesis? Don’t you do it in 5 months typically?

Do what I did: never write it! I put as much on my resume but not once has an employer verified my education. I could put anything!
Unite, my dear, for soon we all, coming from all places on the globe, are gonna become…
