> He is a former physicist? Good god, the waste...
Not sure what you're getting at. I got my BS in Physics. Then even went to grad school for a while. There is no such thing as "getting a job in physics". There are no "physics jobs" that I could find. It's basically either go into high school teaching, or else get your PhD and try for an associate professor job while learning how to apply for grants.
My education in Physics was basically a bust. Entertainment. Fun to learn that stuff. Then I owed a lot of money. That's it. Had to actually learn something else in order to pay off the loans and make a living.
