[quote=Anonymous]Most academic teaching jobs don’t involve tenure and tenure isn’t what you think it is. Partnership at Big Law is closely equivalent to tenure — is that not the real world? K-12 teachers often have a form of tenure after a probationary period — don’t they work in the real world? Unionized workers and civil servants have various protections based on seniority and designed to prevent them from being fired for the wrong reasons. Do they work in the real world? I think by “real world” you mean some (largely fictional) model of how capitalism works.[/quote]
