One of my professors got tenure while I was taking her class. She told us she made more waitressing in grad school than she did as a professor.

it's such a bummer that there's no way to counsel students who want to teach the topic.

Get a Masters and work at a Community College. It is just as valuable, and it focuses more on teaching.

I have a PhD from a Big 10 university, and I don’t have a tt job. I could have gotten this job w/ a Bachelor’s. Don’t do a PhD.

The top 10% of grad programs produce the majority of faculty. A PhD opens other doors in industry and other areas of education though
