Wonder how common this is but I absolutely detest academia as a whole. Individual professors are nothing short of miracle workers but I've seen firsthand that admin destroys people's will to live. I would rather go through shock therapy than teach students who don't wanna learn and be forced to grade all day when I know I'm gonna be pushed to pass everyone anyway and won't be able to really get 1-1 time with students to really help patch up their understanding and instill a love of the subject and learning as a whole.

I'm just sorta convinced that academic institutions have done everything possible to eliminate a love for learning and the desire to explore a subject from their student's hearts despite every good willing professor trying their damndest to do the exact opposite.

Maybe i'm just being too cynical but I want actual professors' opinions here: am I wrong?

I fuckin love math and love exploring ideas and applying my brain to tackle complex problems. I just think i'd be better paid, more intellectually stimulated and more fulfilled at a research role in some kinda AI lab or hedge fund.
