Never mind. You'll be back to work with the Prof soon anyway, where every day's a holiday.

Been working on a research grant proposal since December. Finally got it submitted today. 

Just got to wait 9 months to find out if the research council will give me three quarters of a million quid or not. 

Is it your grant proposal or you doing the professor's work for him?

He doesn't do research any more. He came here on a contract to only do teaching. 

Then decided that teaching was a bit much to take on.

Good luck.  It’s a tough slog. 
 

And if it’s successful I want to see that my tax dollars are going to good use.

I guarantee there will be no tangible or useful outputs whatsoever.
