Hi
I work at the University since four years, now as a lecturer and researcher in a subject called "History of ideas and science".
Best thing is that I am my own boss more or less. Very free job and apart from the teching stuff I can work from home, or whenever during the day it suits me. Good for going climbing...
Or staying home till lunchtime reading up on Wittgenstein. Also very good students to work with.
Worst thing is at times all the student papers I have to judge and make comments on. Also a bit of solo job, I miss the feeling of doing something together with others in a joint project.
Cheers porphy
