Indian Lecturer With PhD, 4 Master’s Degrees Hawks Vegetables To Survive by joelbooks(op): 8:50am On Jan 14, 2024

A university lecturer with 4 master’s degrees and a Ph.D recounts his woes as he resigns from his job after 10 years to hawk vegetables due to financial constraints

The former lecturer, Sandeep Singh used to be a faculty member at a Punjabi University before financial difficulties drove him into resigning

He told India Today that the university salary was very low and never came on time, driving him to seek for other means to sort his bills.

“I taught at Punjabi University – five years on a junior research fellowship and seven years as a guest faculty. In June last year, I quit teaching as it became difficult for me and my family to survive on that salary. I won’t beg before anyone. I will keep doing my work.”

After resigning, the lecturer began hawking vegetables to make ends meet.

“It had become difficult for me to make ends meet with that job. That’s why I switched to selling vegetables for my survival and my family,” he said.

The 39-year-old noted that he doesn’t regret being a lecturer as that had always been one of his dreams as a youngster.

He just need to put his education into that vegetable business, and he will even build a university in years to come.. Na person start pack water into satchet and then plastic bottles.. Today people make money from pure water factory business. Let him plant vegetables in plots, and be seller to those market women. Then dive more into agriculture..

A big f— to that. Just gambling.

You don't go back to do Masters when you don't have a job. Your career is what supposed to determine the area you should do Masters. But these, people do PG studies ignorantly simply because because they have money or feel that's what they need to get a job.

Once you can determine your career direction, you can do your PG and stay there, then continue to advance to PhD and professional certifications. From there, those advance degrees and certifications will earn you promotion and you keep going. You don't do a PG program blindly.

The unemployment rate in India is too high. Hence the reason they're all running away to the USA and Canada.

India is the same as Nigeria. very backward countries. No difference between India and Nigeria
