And this from a woman who held down what looked like a dream job-for-life as a lecturer in statistics in psychology at Oxford (not that one, the other one). As Rachel knows only too well, university posts don't grow on trees and it can tough getting another one (if you want one). If she can find herself in her present situation, so can anybody (including me, someone with previous experience of tutoring students and currently lumping it on UC with no immediate prospects of any decent work any time soon).
