You remarried then? What happened with the ex Mrs T? She has my sympathies.

My partner has just left academia 15 years after getting her PhD. I've been gently encouraging her to leave for 12 years due to its utter rancidness: her boss has no clue how to manage people - just utterly inept, and treated her as a gofer for what he wanted done. He'd say that he wanted to...
