[academicsecret] New comment on Argh! (A Play in Infinite Acts).

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Argh! (A Play in Infinite Acts)":

I TOTALLY relate to what you are going through, dandelion! I am a post-doc and going through it all over again with a new mentor. It took me several months to realize her particular weaknesses and to understand when exactly to ignore her advice (while pretending to listen) and just keep doing exactly what I was doing before. In some cases, the student is more competent than the advisor, but must play along. Argh.
