Yeah, pizza! I drink (alcohol) to celebrate a successful experiment or publication. I also drink when they fail

Hypothesis, surely that is not a very polite response. Anyway I'm hoping you were just having a laugh . With an MSc in Chemistry I think the sky is the limit in terms of what you can do and achieve at PhD level. These days there's loads of options, especially in the UK or US. There are interdesciplinary PhDs, Chemistry (Materials, Theoretical, Analytical, Polymer Chemistry, etc), Chemical Engineering, Bioscience, Education, I could go on. I'm sure where you are there are similar options.
Goodluck, cheers.

I did a GTP (on the job teacher training) before working in industry and then starting a PhD. The teacher training was challenging, very demanding in terms of time, although I should say I enjoyed it because of the fantastic support I got from staff. After ITT I only did my NQT year and a few months before leaving for an R&D job in industry. I just couldn't handle student behaviour. Having been born and raised in Africa, the behaviour was such a culture shock for me. But if anyone is considering teaching, my advice would be go for it, the rewards are immense if its the thing for you, although of course with a PhD one would be over-qualified for the job.

I know what you mean. Happened to me a few times until I decided every time I have to do and save on MS Word then copy & paste.

Sorry I've posted my previous posting on the wrong board. Apologies everyone
