/sci/ - Science & Math

Hey /sci/ chemfag here,
I am currently doing a post-doc at a somewhat prestigious lab in japan.
Problem is; I have realized I hate science and academia.
I hate having no job security, having to beg for money (grants, funding) etc. every 2 years, and moving country or location for work. This is becoming more important because my wife and I eventually want to start a family.
I hate the pressure to produce bulk publications, and that the quantity of publications is somehow a measure of career success. What happened to quality?
I would have to say a solid 70% of the scientist I meet at conferences etc. have asperger’s (pic related).
I am sick of being treated like crap by asshole professors and inflated academic ego’s.
The pay is shit.

So there it is sci. Tell me – has anyone ever gotten out and had a successful career? Is there life after science?
