More on the Q. of #skills-based vs. qualification-based employment:
There remains a significant but falling premium for UK #graduates, in part be due to access to the #professions whose degree requirements remain pretty robust.
However, its also worth noting that non-degree employment seems to be shifting into high(er) skills, albeit at a gradual rate (replacing 'over-qualified' graduates?).
Does a slow shift to highly skilled non-degree holders indicate the success of #apprenticeships?

The #Wisdom of #Psychopaths

Kevin first defines what makes psychopaths, psychopaths, and how they differ from #sociopaths. He describes how #psychopathic traits can be particularly useful in some professions and which #professions attract the most psychopaths. In the second half of our conversation, Kevin lays out his argument for why he thinks the #ApostlePaul was a psychopath and how that’s actually what made him such an effective #evangelist.

Amy Hwang (FT) neatly captures the tension at the heart of children (and parents) with their eye on a career in the #professions... as a retired #university Prof, I certainly ended up with a lot of homework 🙂
When I was 5, I wanted to be an architect. When I was 15, I wanted to be a psychologist. When I was 21, I wanted to be a teacher. But I always wanted to be a mother.
I didn’t become an architect. I didn’t become a psychologist. I didn’t become a teacher. I did become a mother.
I’m now 43, my child is an adult and I … well, I’m a professional sports coach, a semi-professional photographer and a wannabe professional poet.
Life throws curve balls at us. Hit those suckers out of the park: be whoever and whatever takes your fancy.

I'm a Qualitative Researcher and #socialscientist in social care at #OxfordUniversity. I’m conducting #dementiaresearch to understand the #livedexperience of #carers and people with #dementia. I’ll start another project this year to explore the #livedexperience of #careleavers leaving the #caresystem.

I would love to explore therapy and cultivate a relationship with the 'right' therapist. But I can't imagine doing this with someone who isn't anti-capitalist, or someone without a critical analysis of power.
Is there some branch (field? type? practice?) of therapists that might attract such folks? Is there some "tell" or jargon that might tip me off? Is there anything to help me narrow down the possibilities... or at least remove the no-ways?
Is this asking too much? Does capital "P" Psychology have too much "individualism" at its professional roots and thus select out the radicals?
I mean if my therapist doesn't grok the "It's Not Monday You Hate, It's Capitalism" meme, how are we ever going to talk about my moods

A re-#introduction for new Mastodon users:
I'm an associate professor at #Oslo Metropolitan University working at the intersection of #STS, #CulturalSociology, #MedicalSociology, and #MediaStudies
I'm currently studying the use of #telepresence #robots in school (and #digitalization processes in the public sector more generally)

Other #underappreciated #professionals who keep the world running include #SocialWorkers, #secretaries, #nurses, and #PublicSchool #teachers.
(Now what do these all have in common, besides being #undervalued? Could it be that the front line jobs in these #professions are mostly staffed by #WOMEN ?)

There's been some talk on #mastodon about how to validate #professions. You've probably seen it. I was looking at it from that perspective.
I guess I overthought that one :)

I'm having so much fun playing the new #wow #expansion. Just hit 69 last night and even more excited to learn all that the #tailoring and #enchanting no #professions have to offer.

@kawulf I guess eventually all the #professions will want accredited servers?
I haven't decided whether that's a good thing. It all depends on the #profession.
It'll be easier for #Historians and #Archaeologists to verify than #journalists and #authors for example.
I'm watching the space though.

Have you heard about the Peter principle?
It states that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to a level of respective incompetence.
Simply put: People are promoted until they're unfit for the job.
Think about that the next time you're in a meeting with an incompetent superior.
