@AcademicChatter Discipline has a significant impact in the USA. When I worked in Tennessee I learned that the salary of anyone who works at a public institution is publicly available. I'm not sure if that is every state... but you could at least compare to TN.

Years of grading trained me to instantly spot the slightest difference between Arial and Roboto fonts in this cut and paste email pitch 🤣 #transferableskills

@monicarysavy @jod999 Thanks Johnathan.

I run the challenge a few times a year, so stay tuned.

For a course, Hubspot have a free course on Twitter. It's aimed at businesses but it can help academics too as the fundamentals are the same.
