《新科学家》杂志近期的一篇文章指出,在美国,职业生涯结构使得科学家可以获得很好的收入,但在英国,守财奴们却仍然不愿支付科学家高薪。 1989年夏天,米切尔·莱奇翻看着一本流行杂志上的招聘广告。两则广告紧挨在一起:一则是招聘一位实验室主任,他的责任是保证一百五十万户家庭的用水安全纯净。应聘者必须了解紫外线和红外线光谱学,必须掌握各种层析技术,薪水是每年15800英镑。另一则广告招聘的是一位市场经理,年薪27500英镑,外加各种福利,如私人健康保险和一辆公司车。莱奇当即离开了他正在工作的实验室,放弃了他攻读化学硕士学位的计划,转而申请攻读商业管理硕士学位。
A recent article by the New Scientist magazine pointed out that in the United States, the career structure has enabled scientists to make good incomes, but in the United Kingdom misogynists are still reluctant to pay scientists for higher salaries. In the summer of 1989, Mitchell Lech looked at a job advertisement in a popular magazine. The two advertisements come together: one is to recruit a laboratory director whose responsibility is to ensure the safe and clean water for 1.5 million households. Candidates must understand ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy, must master a variety of chromatography techniques, pay 15,800 pounds per year. Another ad hired a marketing manager with an annual salary of £ 27,500, plus various benefits such as private health insurance and a company car. Lech left the lab where he was working immediately, giving up his plan to pursue a master's degree in chemistry and instead applied for a master's degree in business administration.
