辛苦辛苦。苦不苦，想想花儿姐上二百五（W）。

对也跑教授表示真诚的慰问，万分的同情。

苦不苦，想想长征两万五 累不累，想想革命老前辈。

不过，这年头，有多少人失业的人都羡慕你呢。。。。。。

有时我也问，如果我不工作，我干什么？作为社会人，工作是在社会的一个定位。所以只好继续苦着，并乐着。

吃皇粮的也跑们是不理解没有工作苦的苦比工作苦的苦是还要苦的。

矫情！ 革命人永远是年轻的口号不喊了？

Thanks to everyone for your understanding, support or even ridicule. I wrote the small piece at the airport. My scheduled flight at 10.30 pm was canceled and I had to wait for literally the last flight of the day after midnight. The airport was deserted. I was hungry and tired. I then got this sense of 苦.

老齯 talked about 皇粮  but we call it 讨饭. In fact I ran into a colleague in the department last week. He looked visibly older than I last saw him two weeks ago. He told me he had basically lived in his office for two weeks to finish a grant proposal.

This is what I am thinking. Can we still call ourselves a success, if at age close to 50, we still have to work like a dog day in and day out to make a living?

老齯

Can we still call ourselves a success, if at age over 50, we still have to face possible layoff with the current economic uncertainty when some states' unemployement is close to 10%?  You don't have to 讨饭 to make a living with your tenure. I am not being cynical, the timing of your complaints are just bad.

同情同情！　　要不改个名字试试，alsoPlay?

老齯, I understand completely how you feel. Let us just call it 同苦, or in the language of 杜鹃山,黄连苦胆味难分.
