Instructions for People with PhDs

After being hounded for months by a group to complete a survey about my PhD, I finally gave in. Here are some jewels from their online survey form instruction page. Please keep in mind... the ONLY people filling out this questionnaire HAVE their doctorate degrees. Enjoy:




My favorite is the helpful hint that, "in order to print, the computer must be hooked up to a printer." Seriously, if these people can't figure out how to use navigation buttons, or to fill in bubble sheets, they have no right to hold the PhD. Conversely, I wonder if the survey people know how ridiculous and condescending these instructions seem!
