get blind drunk, preferably at uni then you can drunkenly batter that annoying supervisor. Then go home and you will pass out into a blissful sleep.

Not doing a PhD.

I had a few job offers as well as the PhD offer, the PhD was very interesting, so I took that. But had it not have been in my interests, I would have chosen the jobs, no doubt about that. The idea of having a PhD is not appealing if you have to spend three years doing something that doesn't interest you, as that reflects upon the field you will enter after PhD, and you could still not be interested. I know some people change fields after PhD, but that does defeat the whole point of even doing one if you plan on changing fields after PhD when you haven't even started a PhD yet!

Also, the fact that you are not that interested may be evident to the universities you apply to, and thats why you are not getting offers.

If you don't have an interest in the field, doesn't that tell you that its a pretty stupid career choice then?? You really believe that you can spend at least 3 years doing a PhD in a field you are not interested in, AND then work in that field for the rest of your working life?

You seem to be a typical example of someone that wants to do a PhD to get the 'Dr' title, or just because you can't find a decent job right now, but doing a PhD firstly, doesn't guarantee a decent job, but requires a lot of commitment.

Perhaps you should rethink your options

housemates driving you crazy?
S

give her an ultimatum, tell her that things change in the next week or so, or she will have to get out. Ignore the kicking and screaming she may try, you own the house, and you can do what you like.

She sounds unreasonable, and certainly doesn't sound like a friend.

I feel terrible...
