  Is this really the message we want to send?

  Yes, our society makes lots of bullshit jobs. That’s because capitalism can only keep people employed by creating bullshit jobs, and unemployed people are six missed meals away from revolution. That is not the fault of the people who have bullshit jobs.

  And no, I won’t accept “this is just a shitposting sub, lighten up” as a response. This is just another form of kicking down, and it isn’t funny. The working class needs solidarity, not this.

    Couldn’t be further from reality. Capitalist firms actively hire the least amount of people possible, because if they can get away with equal production and lower number of employees, that means higher profit.

    Capitalism is actually the only system in human history with unemployment: it wasn’t a thing in hunter-gatherer society, it wasn’t a thing in early agricultural societies, it wasn’t a thing during the times of slavery, it wasn’t a thing during feudalism, and it hasn’t been a thing in any communist nation such as Cuba or the USSR (both guaranteeing jobs to every citizen as a right, and the latter having 10% of all positions vacant from 1970 onward).

    Capitalism maintains an unemployed sector of the population because:

    1. Employing more workers costs more money to firms

    2. Having high unemployment decreases wages, improving profits of firms

    3. Having a pool of unemployed people allows firms to spawn, grow and mutate without difficulty of finding workers to do so.

  Is this a war on being specific?

  If a fisherman says “I operate the winch on a bowpicker tuna fishing boat”, is that a bullshit job?

  If a middle-management yes-man who exists only to fluff his boss’ ego describes his job as “I encourage excellence” does that mean his job is no longer bullshit?

    Why is everyone always annoyed at managers?

    source

    • merc@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      A lot of managers are pretty useless. Some degree of management is needed because you can’t just have 10,000 individual contributors all reporting directly to the CEO. But, a lot of managers get where they are by schmoozing, claiming credit, shifting blame, avoiding responsibility, etc.

  Saying “I catch fish” is as descriptive as the first guy saying “sales analyst”. Second person is a software developer, second guy is a systems architect. So you catch fish? Sure. What kind? On a river? In the ocean? Do you really just press a button that rolls up a big net full of turtles and dolphins as well and you’re destroying the delicate balance of a fragile ecosystem? Are you a fishing guide?

  Anyone can describe their job in three words. Understanding it is on you, man.
