Katie MacLean @katiemaclean.bsky.social · 31/08/2026The final stretch of the PhD burn out is real! I thought a classic British boozy strip holiday would save me but I’ve returned with the flu, a very full inbox and unsuccessful job applications (one for my dream job, yayyy 🥲) 140
Katie MacLean @katiemaclean.bsky.social · 31/08/2026And I know complaining on social media is boring and I should have seen this coming but I am a little scared that my last stipend payment is in November (!) How do people afford to live in the period between finishing their PhD, waiting for Viva, and getting a job in this market??? 020
