Lapsed academic problem: you’re so used to working all the bloody time (because otherwise you aren’t ‘contributing’) that when you’re now working in a non-ac/alt-ac job, you don’t know how to stop, becoming an accidental workaholic #formeracademic #AcademicTwitter #academia

Every time I get up from being flat to go to the bathroom I have some sort of creative idea: for reading, writing, music, attempts to help fellow patients, research etc. #formereconomist #formeracademic #csfleak 1/2

In all films ever: Someone packs up their office in one (half-full) box in a few minutes. Me: 2 large suitcases, 4+ bags & 6 hours later...... ...empty office. End of the era complete. And maybe the last time I'll have my own office 🤷‍♀️. #formeracademic #emptyoffice

I feel there's too much focus on making money over having a fulfilling and meaningful job in tech. How did we get here? Maybe it's just the PhD in me talking. #svlife #formeracademic

Up until 10 weeks ago I was an academic running a biological microscope facility. It was daunting to move from academia to industry. Oxford Instruments has helped make that transition a positive one. Photo taken last summer. #formeracademic #WomensDay #WomenInSTEM
