[quote=Anonymous]I teach as an adjunct and am married to a tenured professor. I don't really consider myself a professor because I have a real job outside of academia. My husband has a real job too--to publish. That was his job before tenure. After tenure, he can take a much more relaxed view of it. He still publishes, but because he likes it. And if he misses a cycle, there's next year. Our future no longer depends on when and where he places those damn pieces. Our social circle is half academics and half friends met through our kids. We like both equally well. DH is not usually the smartest guy in the room because, while brilliant, he has no practical skills. I still have to keep him informed that the milk is still, in fact, on the shelf behind the OJ daily, like it always is. I consider myself just as smart.[/quote]
