What I hate about academia: the expectation that you work constantly, even if you are on annual leave, even if you spend time with family members or friends you haven't seen in months. The strength it takes to speak up for yourself and say no. (1/2)

Am komischsten finde ich immer noch, aus dem Nichts dumm von der Seite angequatscht zu werden, weil ich Maske trage. Neulich im Aufzug (an der Uni) sprach mich eine andere Person einfach an ich solle mal die RKI Files lesen, und es sei ja keine Maskenpflicht mehr.
In the new year I want to block 1 day/week for writing papers again. No meetings, no teaching prep, just writing. This was so important when writing my thesis, & it will be very helpful for the tenure track.
