Same as it was before, cost 1500$ to maybe confirm what they were thinking (ovarian cyst). Now I have 4 types of meds to give her everyday twice a day for a little while. Pretty hard to give meds to a bird -_-.

My cousin is a PHD in political science, he's a titular teacher at U of Laval now, I hope he makes more than that

What kind of bird is it?

I'm guessing it's not a budgie if you're willing to invest that much.

So he found the one job that pays well for like 98% of phds?...good on him. My favourite bartender at my local pub has a poli sci masters...she may clear $40k after tips

It's a cockatiel, not that big but I've had it for 12 years and it can still live another 10.

Yeah well, looking at the job perspective before starting a degree seems like a smart thing to do...maybe it's just me though.

I hope it pulls through!

I'm always baffled by people getting a master in history only to work at a basic office job afterwards.

I mean....what was the plan?

I'm shocked by people paying tens of thousands of dollars to "find themselves" with no real plan

It should, it's just that for almost a year it's had a big liquid lump growing in its belly. Had to go to the vet to purge it 5 times already. It gets so big that it squished all other internal organs and the bird has a hard time breathing. Removing 30 ml liquid from a 105g bird is almost 30% of its weight...

I mean, if your only goal is to gain knowledge, buy books or do some Internet research. A degree should be used to get a job you like IMO. Especially here where the state pays a big part of your degree.

My brother in law is a PHD in Astrophysics. Doing ok, but there are literally only 14 places he can work in the English speaking world.

Learn a second language nobody wants to and use it as a springboard to work abroad as "the English guy."

You're an Archer fan right? It reminds me of the discussion between Archer, Rip Riley and the guy who was an anthropology phd (played by David Cross) who translated on pirate island about phds and completing the cycle of why bother

It's an idiotic life plan but it's worked out quite well for some of us
