[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A person who has a Ph.D. and demands to be addressed as Dr. is a jerk regardless of where they earned or bought their degree (the exception is an academic context where all Ph.D. are referred to as Dr.).[/quote] I have a PhD and work at a museum with many other PhDs. I would never ask to be addressed as Dr. but I have written reports from "Ms." to "Dr." when other staff--always men--are already identified as Dr. [/quote] oops--meant to say that I have EDITED written reports. My PhD is useless without a lot of caffeine![/quote]
