youre in the 2/10, or aspiring to be in it, "temporarily embarassed PI". be more cynical. a bit of professional advice, if you're still at the postdoc level. don't do what i did, which was to do good science. the best way to get a facilty position is to have a PI boss that will play politics for you.

Why would I take professional advice from an anonymous HN poster? I don't work in academia.
