There are a lot of people who are very passionate about their field and want nothing more than to teach and do research. University administrators and a lot of older professors with tuition use these people basically as slaves, making them pull off insane hours without any compensation. They do this by promising them that if they work hard enough, they’ll eventually get a full-time job as a professor and actually start getting paid, but in reality, these people generally just get sucked dry off their passion and end up working in a gas station.
