i dunno... this is still talking about... objects. when it comes to relativity or cosmology, it becomes pretty abstract.

not really, besides most things you actually DO in undergrad chemistry and in most labs as a chemist deal with objects with most of that abstract stuff requiring not much more than a rudimentary understanding unless you're in some kind of lab filled with folks looking to cure cancer or do some sort of nuclearchemistry or something. You forget most of that shit after you finish your required physical chemistry class and thinking about it makes you shudder and squeeze whatever is in your hands really hard.

better jobs than physics majors...

esiann, what are you taking??

archaeology :P

Hi pog welcome to the forums

archaeology :P

My brother's girlfriend has an archaeology degree and there's just ALWAYS work for her whenever she wants it. She can just say to The Archaeologists gimme some work and she can go dig something up. good move esiann... good move

I liked pog, he reminded me of gaia online. bye pog.

oh so you are going for archaeology esiann? that's cool. I can picture you in archaeologist gear.

chemsity can be pretty complex and math-heavy, but it's still pretty concrete. the abstract stuff in physical chemistry is still physics, its just like a studying strong and weak nuclear forces and then applying the chemistry to them, right?

i guess i didn't take al ot of chemistry, but from what i gather, it is pretty testable, but in physics there's a lot of "soooo dark matter.... it's there, i swear. you just can't see it... and.. we don't really know what it is" or "gravity is just a way to explain something, it doesn't actually exist... we just... can't prove it"...


@mark: really? i was just about to ask esiann if you can get any kind of job with just a undergrad or even with a masters, other than like... uh, at a museum or something.
@esiann: please give more info on this. it is cool-sounding. what kind of job do you wnat from it?

i miss pog

Well it might be different for esiann being american since america is such a babby country and nobody cares about native american shit. More arrowheads... nice. Here there's stuff to be dug up all the while and it's close to enough to european countries where stuff is being dug up all the while to go there for work too

there are lots of tumuli here (mexico&central&south america have more interesting things), but i'm not sure where i want to work. i'm trying out museums this summer and field work/hopefully national park work next summer to see what's up. i don't want to teach or write i don't think. which will make my english minor almost useless but i'll read so many books heads will rotate rapidly

i like museums though. the actual excavation part of archaeology isn't as exciting as it might seem from idk indiana jones. it is scraping away centimeters of dirt at a time and carefully depositing different soil types in different buckets to be sorted later. it is good if you do not mind tedious work, like me

Where is this Pog everyone is talking about? I haven't seen any posts by Pog. Did his posts get deleted?

err, what i'm trying to say is that it isn't impossible or anything but it's certainly not as EZ as mark is making it out to be

It is here.

I did 3 years and university but I wasn't studying my brother's girlfriend's employment records. That's exactly what she told me though, whenever she wants archaeology work it's available. Maybe she lied to me though, maybe she's a compulsive liar.

did you finish then? what did you get?

he got level 80 on WoW

it is because women were told they couldnt do math and sciences until very recently it is not because of brain shit

marmot is so deeply removed from the needs of the proletariat that academics are ALL HE CAN THINK ABOUT

women do a lot of sciende! more than half of bio people are women! the thing is with numbers

nah this is a dumb topic anyway

you sir, are making it a dumb topic, sir
