When I worked at a more teaching oriented school, this meme captured how I felt when a ‘Lord of Research’ at a powerhouse school complained to me about resources at their Uni.
Later, I came to know others felt that way about me, when I complained about my less-resourced university.
While I am not always happy about a policy or plottwist, I learned to always be grateful for my academic job - not bc someone out there has a worse deal - but bc at the end of the day - most every academic job is a great job!
