Mitigating illness as an archaeologist is tricky no matter where you are at in your career. This job takes a toll on you physically and leaves little room for R&R let alone the penalties that come with resting when you are an on call employee. Andrew and the sickly Heather, with her best “Kathleen Turner” voice, consider how to mitigate illness before and during the field and care for yourself regardless of budget. Stay safe and well out there fellow archs!

Ever wonder how difficult it is to work in other states in the US and if it makes sense to take opportunities in different geographies? This episode explores how to diversify your geographical skill set that will in turn improve your short and long term employment prospects. Each state has their own set of requirements, some are much more stringent than others. However, putting in the time early in your career may be the best time to expand your archaeological-geographical footprint. We will discuss why this is the case and how to improve your marketability as a CRM professional.

We take the conversation we started last episode regarding vocational training of a technical workforce in CRM a little further. Bill provides an excellent perspective on the current role of the academic world in the CRM profession. How the current projections of future student populations provides both a bleak potential for growing numbers of new archaeologists and the promise for job security. This is an interesting perspective considering the current uncertainty looming in our discipline. Finally, is a rethinking of the original Airlie House an answer to what ails us? Tune in to find out and to learn how to educate yourself on the future of CRM!

During these uncertain times in our discipline, it is easy and understandable to be assuming the worst. However, in order to ride any storm, it is important to have a broad perspective and prepare for all outcomes. On this episode, Andrew and Heather consider various perspectives of the current state of CRM in light of the most recent executive orders and the laying off of federal archaeologists. We consider both the shadowy and sunny side of the proverbial CRM street and provide some potential avenues of action.
