@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice Get Out!

[Jade Montoya @symbiobotanist]

Quit my PhD yesterday! Pretty proud of myself. It wasn’t easy but I wasn’t sure I was going to survive another few years (literally) and I knew my baby needed his mommy alive so it’s what I had to do.

[Thato Mokhothu @TM_Mokhothu]

@PhD_Genie Get out NOW.

@Lolchu @PhDVoice @PostdocVoice The truth in this

@Tasia1409 Ooof that’s really tough. Maybe going back to Sim if you have any leave days?

[Thato Mokhothu @TM_Mokhothu]

@Tasia1409 Is it possible to get to an embassy in a different country?

[Thato Mokhothu @TM_Mokhothu]

@BGC210 Oh nooo. I hope you will get better soon.

@HeatherDSnell No. Id expect acknowledgment, no authorship because I would not have had any major contributions to the research.

Some of the cruelest people on earth use this tactic intentionally to avoid facing problems head on. It’s a disease 🙄
