<p>I think that my professor’s complaint was that there were few availabilities for many PhDs, so chances would be low for what I want. He told us horror stories about having his degree, but being unable to get ANY job for a long time, even at Home Depot. Crazy, right? I know that it depends on the field though. He was in bio, and I imagine that that is one of the worst.</p>
