Are most jobs bullshit?
Anyone else notice this. Most administrators and even lawyers I have spoken to have no idea what they're doing. It feels like they all managed to sneak their way into their position and are grifting.

Jobs are for widwits. If you can't figure out someway to make your time valuable without a boss telling you what to do, you obviously are not that intelligent.

Yes. Even so called 'blue collar' hand skilled labor jobs.
The only jobs I would say aren't bullshit are welding. Anyone that isn't a welder has a bullshit job. Including linemen, that's a bullshit job compared to welding

Organizational bloat. Most corporate jobs don't need to exist. There is an entire industry of pointless positions that create nothing.

Yes. My first real job I worked my first summer back from college was in a company that made parts for rotary wing aircraft. I was a mail / package gopher at first but then they figured out I could use a computer and spreadsheets and databases and I ended up doing the job some lady who got sick used to do, then other shit. By two months in I was doing the job of three people including assembly language programming for some helicopter landing gear software. Which I knew because I programmed BASIC and you frequently had to make assy routines because BASIC was so slow.

Anyway I realized how most of the jobs were fake and we had sales guys who just jet-setted around all the time, never found out what they ACTUALLY did either. I had an Indian guy (this was in the '90s mind you) who was my immediate boss when they found out I could use and even program a computer and he would always find excuses to take me away from my computer workstation and "take dese tings and file dem avay." His work name was Philip but his real name was some hindu name.

Amazing shit but pajeetification had set in to some degree, a toehold even in the 1990s.

agreed. about to go in for the 4th week on the job, literally just updating a spreadsheet for 8 hours. it's awful for my body but good for my wallet, and I already got wallet raped by car expenses so, until I earn a few more months I can't NEET for a bit. I want the economy to collapse entirely because it's broken as fuck here.

Yes. Currently, society is going through a selection process that culls autist genes because women want guys with cushy bullshit jobs, and these jobs are not available to autist/introvert types since these jobs aren't meritocratic and are only available to those who know how to network and who can dance their way through the mumbo jumbo bullshit work environment

Had to do a welding class for my automotive program. I was always paranoid about the arc eating my retinas, and after an hour of welding, the back of your throat hurts since you've been inhaling toxic fumes. Welders deserve every penny they make. But also fuck you I hope your car breaks down and you can't figure out how to fix it so you have to take it to a mechanic Chad

Honestly, lawyers work hard mentally and construction workers work hard physically and beyond that they everyone is acting. I remember before the internet my doctor would give me a checkup when I was a sick little kid and then he’d leave the room for 10+ minutes and now I know he was rifling through a medical book to figure out what the fuck was wrong with me.

There was a story of some investor who was investigating a business that was making lots in sales but losing money. He found out that there was an entire building of people doing nothing for their jobs so he bought the company, laid off the entire building, and the company became hugely profitable again in which he sold it for a huge profit after it was shown to be making money.

there's nothing wrong with that. He's not a specialist so he's not going to know every single medical problem if he's a family doctor.

99% of jobs are retarded and useless. You have to jump through hoops and waste money on certificates and degrees. Some mongrel mysterymeat person can just walk on over and get hired, without even having to speak english. What makes this even more absurd, is that the government just prints money when it needs it. So the entire economy is bullshit, along with majority of jobs.

It happens a lot. Part of it is tax code shit, part of it is the egos of executives, and the rest is that people at the top of these organizations seldom understand how their company works. If the CFO were doing their job at all, that building would have never existed. People imagine people with fancy job titles know what they are doing. They seldom do. A miraculously successful CEO or CFO is usually just someone who does their job sometimes. Not even every day. Just a person who attempts to understand anything about their company occasionally. The bar for corporate executives is buried miles underground.

>entire economy is bullshit
the post-1970s global economy is Financialized.
Financialization is exclusively about making money from money (the Real Economy of goods-services-commodities, might as well not even exist) using speculative debt instruments most of which never existed prior to the 1980s such as CDOs, credit default swaps, derivatives, mortgage backed securities all of which are acquired and manipulated in a gigantic black box casino of the global investment banks. This is where all of the world's wealth in the 21st century is generated and held by the top HNW entities, totally segregated from the Real Economy.
Financialization of the global economy began during the 1980s and was officially inaugurated with the 1999 repeal of Glass-Steagall. Also the neoliberal offshoring of western manufacturing productive capacity began in 1980s under Thatcher-Reagan and accelerated under Clinton, which in addition to Financialization has impoverished the lower and middle class of the west entirely. (Hence, the rise in populist politics after 2010)

>"The real money to be made in the world today is not by producing anything at all. It's simply by forms of speculating β€” basically making money from money. That's the most profitable, and by far and away the biggest form of economic activity that exists in the world today."

The more ridiculous the corporate title, the more likely it is that they do nothing. You would be surprised how many people get paid to send emails, go to meetings, and fill out a spreadsheet occasionally. Most jobs have worth. Everything the other dude mentioned actually does something. There are jobs that do nothing. And the crazy thing is, they pay well. These aren't 70k a year positions; they are 150k a year positions.

>necessary for large companies
The only reason HR has become 'necessary' is because of 1) insurance companies(which are tied at the hip with banks/finance corporations) and 2) Liability (attorneys and law firms), the bigger the corporation employer then the more HR infrastructure is 'needed'
So the post-1950s growth and pervasiveness of both insurance, and (various forms of) employment liability/attorneys has caused the choking parallel growth of HR bureaucracy

I work IT help desk and I am the smartest person in my office of 40 workers. I am not bragging, it is a verified fact that gets continuously hammered every day. I am asked to restart computers because people can't find the power button on one. I am asked by other "IT" staff how to reset a password because they can't get past Microsoft Entra. I am asked by AI-using 22 year old roasties how to change the microphone on a Teams meeting. They unironically see me as some kind of genius with hidden knowledge.

The competency crisis is real, most people are 90% retarded and use ChatGPT for every aspect of their jobs, and the terrifying aspect of it all is, competent white men like me that keep everything running are dying out.

>The west was built
the west was offshored and its manufacturing productive capacity shipped to less-developed nations, some of which have now taken the place entirely of what the west formerly produced. (Presently August 2025 we see the Trump administration's attempt to 're-shore' some of America's decades-ago relinquished durable goods manufacturing productive capacity, an ambitious project which many observers are skeptical will be able to succeed). Most of the United States economy consists of service sector (i.e. not skilled labor or manufacturing) jobs and most of the non-government U.S. GDP (gov spending/projects/employment/contracts is 40 percent of total, already) is consumer spending.
