Do you have a bullshit job?

Don’t answer that! (via MaryEllen Slayter)

According to author David Graber, a bullshit job is:

“Bullshit jobs are jobs which even the person doing the job can’t really justify the existence of, but they have to pretend that there’s some reason for it to exist. That’s the bullshit element. A lot of people confuse bullshit jobs and shit jobs, but they’re not the same thing.”

He gives examples of corporate lawyers, brand managers and administrative jobs. Good work AI, maybe you can save us from our bullshit selves! (Vox)
