Graduate students do a lot of "ghost work" (aka: unrecognized, undocumented work & labour) under the guise that it's "part of our training".

It's still work - and we deserve recognition.

It's the work do that's nowhere to be found on our CVs, but takes up a lot of our time.
I'm talking about: reviewing manuscripts, helping write grants, etc.

We spend so many hours doing these things, but it's not reflected in our formal measures of productivity.

There's a disconnect here.
