@ChrisMayLA6 Sad to hear. =( Do you think that the prestige a higher academic title brings, and tenure, are the reasons for this?
Or is it just that that jobs tends to attract that type of person?

I always used to say that part of the function of Universities was to provide (relatively) productive employment for middle-class professionals who would be unemployable in any other sector -as you can imagine that didn't make me popular among my colleagues (but that's what 15 years of private sector work before entering the academy made pretty clear)
@ChrisMayLA6 Brilliant! :D Was that something you brought up at the university christmas party? ;)
