Blogs about the professions and what they are like
Richard, a loyal MR reader, writes to me:
For the last couple months I've been following the FemaleScienceProfessorblog (http://science-
professor.blogspot.com/). It's basically about the professional life of a biology professor. It's not fascinating or thought-provoking in the way MR is. Much of the time, it's really rather mundane, which is the whole point. Reading it, I feel like I know much more about what it's like to be in a professional position much like hers. It's not cluttered with really any other random stuff; every new post that comes in from her, I know what I'm getting.Here's my request: I'd love to find 5-10 more blogs like this. I don't even particularly care what professions, but I'd like to get a non-glamorized, relatively even-handed inside view of other professions. I certainly would have loved to have had a few dozen of these to follow when I was trying to make career choices…
This is a good question, but I have nothing to offer. Would MR readers care to make some suggestions?
