What are some modern bullshit jobs?
Jobs that either don't contribute in any meaningful way or jobs where one would be better off if they were paid to be on call.

I think 'producing something tangible' is hardly a fair metric.
A therapist doesn't produce something tangible, but many of them provide value to their clients.
A guitar teacher (or any teacher for that matter) doesn't produce something tangible either, but they again provide value.
If the business is to produce educated people. Teachers provide the core benefit.. and pretty measurable.
It's when there's a teacher with 7 line managers that are just have meetings to talk about the teachers "output" that causes the problem.
Yeah but those aren't groups I have to deal with unless I choose to. You really can't get around the financial system. It's not like I can take a 100 bucks and walk up to say a gas station and say "1 share please". And before you say Robinhood keep in mind that you don't actually own those stocks, they own them and you are just "managing it".
I'll agree to that but still wish we didn't have a "need" for finance people.
