高处不胜寒[转贴,斯坦福博士首席研究员失业开出租车)

这个事情主要不是低薪,而是从高到低的落差．

很多移民留学生出国后,都经历从打工,低薪到专业工作和高薪的过程，从低到高很正常,　如果从高再到低,　那压力可想而知．

ROLIA职坛有个帖专门讲这个,　一人来加４年一路风顺,　从３０K, 45k, 50k, 75k. 一直做到90k，后被layoff, 一直没找到专业工作,　做part time labour, 变成１０k了.

I guess driving Taxi is not bad. Couple of 中东人 in my neigthbourd drive 出租车, they all have big house. They said they were engineers in their country. I guess many immegrants having the similar stories.

With the current world in recession, and especially for scientists, and even for hi-tech engineers, it is extremely difficult to find employment. By saying because he couldn't find job proved that the 研究局 is correct is a bit harsh and unfair.

There are a lot phd and doctors trained in foreign countries are driving taxis in Canada too. A friend of mine who was an eye doctor in China couldn't find job here and eventually became (believe or not) a policeman in Windsor.

他并不是被裁，是合同到期。 16年是个足够长的时间来证明一个人合不合适做研究工作了。

If someone could last 16 years, then he/she should be good enough, don't you think?

I think this was probably just cost-cutting, happened everywhere.

大起大落呀。

还是拼命进政府算了。

听说过这么一个故事吗？一位先生坐上一辆出租车，非常兴奋，告诉司机他刚参加完毕业典礼，从今天起就是哈佛博士了。司机一听，握着他的手，热烈祝贺：“幸会啊，校友。你使我想起了十年前的我 ... ”。

哈佛也这样？
