Welcome to juniorprof

Seven ways to figure out whether you're a junior prof:

1. You spend a lot of time avoiding committee meetings
2. You've hidden from a student by diving under the desk
3. Achieving a personal life is on your list of things To Do
4. You still haven't given up on the idea of Free Food
5. Your real expertise lies in exploring the local happy hour scene
6. You're always working on your "Book"
7. You spend more than 8 hours a day contemplating alternate career plans

Juniorprof taking the day off

A day off? What does one do with oneself? My secular approach to Easter has involved mimosas, a pastry that looked like a duck, new summer sandals, and some guilt about not grading that stack of papers. After the mimosas, however, I am feeling less guilty.

What are your strategies for taking the day off?

    Margaritas and too many cigarettes help with the guilt.

    Being severely hungover pretty much settles the matter for me.
