Hey at least you are (probably) getting paid for it.
As a Ph.D. student in microbiology, I'm expected to work 60-70 hours a week just for the hell of it. The only compensation we get is a measly stipend that isn't even enough for one person to live on, much less a family (wife was recently laid off and is having no luck finding a new job).
I keep wondering why I am still here, but I am too far into it at this point to walk away.
Grad school: it's not just a job, it's an indenture!
