Follow your dreams, and you'll never work a day in your life. Because that field's not hiring.

From the rise of remote work and the gig economy, to the devaluing of higher education, this book takes an unflinching look at the new landscape of work in the post-pandemic world. Drawing on peer-reviewed research and real-world examples, the 4th edition of No, You Can’t be an Astronaut is a must-read for anyone looking to launch a new career or stay ahead in a rapidly evolving job market.

Through no fault of her own, Professor Molly just got promoted to department chair at Mahina State University ("Where Your Future Begins Tomorrow").

She has to mentor the department's new star, the prickly Fiona Spencer. The Student Retention Office has her buried in paperwork. Her college has just relocated to a former asylum, her budget is being slashed, and the air conditioning is broken. At least nothing else can go wrong.

Until Fiona finds a body in her office.
