Everything I know and use in my current job I learned on-the-job.

In my opinion, if your goal is learning and research, then the Ph.D. would be the way to go.

Ditto! FWIW I think you should have a pretty good idea of what you want to do when you "get out" before you put all that time, effort, and money into advanced degrees. You wouldn't believe how many recent Phd's we get applying for lab tech jobs.

You can do lifelong learning without a degree.

we have us a real live tropical storm in the Gulf!

Nyah, nyah! NC won't get trashed by an F named storm this year (those F storms can be rough! Fran, Floyd...)

Won't be around much this morning. Have a bored meeting that promises to be rather contentious. At least it should keep me awake...

Hullo all...had meetings all day yesterday at the Five-Sided Insane Asylum...would rather have been here...

Have a bored meeting that promises to be rather contentious.

Wanna borrow this, Corin?...I find it works rather well at removing "contentious issues"...

Good morning, everyone. Thanks for the nice answers. I have to go to work now (hmm, do we know why she's so anxious to stay in school? Only joking, I like my job) but I'll be back this evening sometime... take care, and remember it's FRIDAY!

Jen, I don't mean to sound like such a wet blanket on this degree thing. It's just that I see folks amassing student loan debt in figures approaching mortgage level and applying for entry-level jobs.
