This thread IS NOT for undergraduates or first year graduate students YOU WILL BE IGNORED. Any questions about what classes to take / how to get into graduate school / research areas will be IGNORED. NO UNDERGRADUATES ALLOWED.

PhD graduates, What are you up to now that you have a PhD? What sort of jobs did you get or are you looking for? Doing post-docs / get hired as a prof / doing industry work / currently looking?

actual 3rd year PhD student in Physics here.

how do I motivate myself to learn a programming language to automate my data analysis lads?

I feel like I've lost all interest and motivation in my PhD at this point and actively wish something bad happens to me like an accident or something.

At the moment I'm just manually editing each .txt. or csv file on Microsoft Excel one by one. I've analysed over 500 files so far doing this method.
