I am just wondering if anyone else is getting just a little bit peeved that the BB is now primarily being used as a jobs board? -- Dr. Christopher J. Law, Queen's University Belfast

Law, Queen's University Belfast Hi Christopher, Well, I quote from the CCP4 web site: The bulletin board is routinely used to request information, and to inform people about job vacancies, new services and the availability of new or updated software. Considering how volatile has become almost any job in research, I think that this use of the board stands among the most useful ones, in practice, for the community. If the messages are properly labelled in their subjects non-interested people can always filter such messages out.

Re: [ccp4bb] Jobs
I personally am not peeved at all, but I am getting concerned that most of the jobs advertised are postdocs. Mighty and mysterious market forces have cut very deep into the heart of structural science and this is not good.

I always Look on the Bright Side of Life, so I take a certain solace in the fact that while this may be true, most postdoc positions pay about as well as my job, if not better.

Re: [ccp4bb] Jobs
Are the salaries compared in orders of magnitude? Or you mean other pays?

Re: [ccp4bb] Jobs
Christopher, I don't think you will have any more 'peeved' feelings when you ARE looking for a job.

No, just California Dollars, which I think are on a par with those printed in Zimbabwe prior to April 12th.
