Academia really is a roller coaster: My first PhD paper was rejected 11 times before being published, the second one 7 times. I was very close to quitting my PhD back then. Now, I won an award for these very two papers. What a ride!🙃#phdlife #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter pic.twitter.com/bB8eDqvFEw

Simon Walo is a research assistant at the chair of Prof. Jörg Rössel, where he recently completed his PhD in Sociology. In his dissertation, he investigates different ways of advancing contested knowledge in the sociology of work. In doing so, he is looking at debates about the impact of technological change on employment, the «bullshit jobs theory» and the historical transformation of the meaning of work.
