Work

The working world seems to be a really scary place.
Sometimes it's quite amazing at how things work around the place.
Every cog and wheel in society, how everything turns.

When you're in school or even university there are so many things that you learn in class that you wonder what use it would really be later. Similarly, there are so many "know-hows" that just seems to be common sense or just so simple that you feel people out there won't really pay you to do this- at least not well. I just sometimes really wonder about this. Does the educational environment really prepare you for the work environment. Sometimes I feel like I've been in academics for way too long that it's a little scary to face the real world. But recently, even the feel for the academic world, or the excitement I had for the research world has really burnt out. I don't know how some people do it. And now when I think about it, it feels like when I go out there I'm gonna be starting from scratch if I decide not to do any work related to the science-field.
