> some people that felt they weren't ready for the real world.
i know some of these people. i suspect a lot of phds are people like these. of those who stay through the entire 3-5 year program, yet some are happy to remain post docs for the rest of their lives. they seem to have no goal, no real curiosity, no desire to see what exists outside the academic life they've known since college... they are there simply because they were there.
