Post PhD I found myself getting repeatedly rejected for jobs. “Won't you get bored?” was the politest response. I ended up changing careers to IT which at the time didn't care as much. I used to park in the city. The old guy who took care of the lot was Russian. I'd stop and chat. Turns out he did his Doctorate in Plasma Physics. Car park attendant. Plasma Physics. I have no words.
