My experience at working at the bank office is a bit different. When I started almost all the things i did was in some way helping custumers and the work really had meaning. The more time went on and the more strange regulations we got and the more questionable decisions made by upper management we got less and less effective and less and less time was useful work, the customers became less happy, new rules came from above to fixing the the problem makeing it worse and so on. When I quit it was like i had changed workplace dureing my time there.

I work as a Machinist. I literally make necessary precision parts out of metal stock. at least 30% of my day is filling out forms and meetings, and i spend the last hour screwing around wasting time, pretending to clean, etc because i don't want to start something before i leave. They force us to work overtime. Every Week, sometimes it's 8 hours of overtime a week, sometimes 16. Every hour of overtime i work is an hour of time i'm in the bathroom, walking around, getting a drink of water, playing with something, talking. The overtime is because the CEO and Shareholders predicted X amount of revenue and they are only getting about 60% of that, so the middle manager shoves overtime on everyone so it looks like he's doing something. There is absolutely 0 tracking of how much work anyone is doing, for the most part all the work anyone does is for their own pride and to not screw over the next guy at shipping or assembly. In spite of all of this, the place makes millions in profit and the total revenue grows 20% a year. Here's what i think, i think you could get rid of 90% of management and office staff, hire more actual workers, pay the actual workers about 4 times what you're currently paying them, let them work 20 hours a week, and then their wives wouldn't have to work either. All that extra time could be spent home schooling kids, growing a large garden or tending to livestock.

It's because humans have figured out how to harness other sources of energy and transform it into work via machines. Instead of 25 men (powered by food) with shovels digging a foundation, we now have one dude with a diesel powered excavator. Same with farming. Instead of dozens of farmhands who all need to be fed themselves, we have tractors powered by fossil fuels. Most of our increase in quality of life comes from the ability to use other sources of energy, which is why it's so important that we transition to nuclear/solar/wind/etc. Fossil fuels have been great, but the party is soon going to be over and I'd rather not return to the 1700s.

My step-dad described to me a situation at his work when a light bulb in the break room blew. Instead of him or one of his workmates replacing it themselves, they had to call an on-site electrician to come do it for them because apparently you need authorisation to change a fucking light bulb. So a team of four electricians show up. Why four? Well there was - 1. One to change the bulb 2. One to hold the ladder the light bulb changer is standing on 3. One to cover the light switch with his hands so nobody accidentally turns it on 4. And one to keep an eye down the hallway outside the break room I was in absolute awe when he was telling me this shit. It's beyond parody, a LITERAL joke; "How many electricians does it take to change a light bulb?". Well now you know.

The monetary system is the root of it all. I do wonder though, what would happen if BS jobs (which are most jobs) disappeared overnight? It makes me thinks of the scene in Idiocracy when Brawndo goes bankrupt because they start using water on plants instead of Brawndo. But half the world was employed by Brawndo, which leads to them revolting when they lose their jobs. I imagine it would ve similar here, a lot of people who are happy to get paid to do nothing would be upset that they would suddenly be expected to be productive in some way.

Define "meaning". What's meaningful to one is meaningless to another. Sports for example is a huge part of the lives of many millions (billions?) of people. So everyone who helps facilitates that industry, from the actual athletes to the guy selling the jerseys, serves a meaningful function. But not to me, because I don't like sports. I look for meaning in other things. Museums are wonderful for me, but other people find them tedious and boring. If your job isn't meaningful for you, then perhaps you need to look at your choices in life.

It was sick. I realized the system was to keep us sick and in the building on a hamster wheel. Eventually I stopped trying so hard but just said I was. And I kept being rewarded and promoted and even tho I never hit my goal, the numbers kept being met. Nothing added up. Nothing was real. So many roles, so much overlap, so many meetings, so many emails. Just a huge waste of time. I never looked back. I want those years back. Someone died on the clock. I’m front of us. He was replaced. A year later we scheduled a moment of silence and they had us skip it because that moment of our time to remember our colleague was too valuable.

So many IT projects are just work for the sake of making managers happy, and big organizational projects have such a high failure rate that it is not even funny.

I admit I do a BS job. I run a master control department for a local TV network. Basically just organizing productions and live feeds, staff scheduling, etc. Admin stuff. Much of my day is spent waiting on others people to send stuff to us. We were deemed essential during the lockdown. People rely on the local news we provide, but even I know we're toast once the boomers start croaking. I had a thought today when I realized I had gone from lower middle class at the start of my career in 2012 to upper working class, despite more than doubling my income since then. Louis Rossman made a remark a couple years ago that summed up the situation. The economy in Canada and the US used to function on a carrot and stick model. The carrot being home ownership. That's what kept people working the BS jobs. Now the carrot is gone for most young people, and all you're left with is the stick. Yet they expect everyone to keep working the same as they always did, if not more, and they're baffled why people are throwing up the middle finger. Whole thing is one big joke. But nobody wants to even entertain any alternatives, aside from "muh socialism", because it means society would have to take a big red pill suppository and admit it's all fake.

Higher taxes on the wealthy means they will simply take their business and their residence to another country where they are treated better and we miss out. This is already happening to an immense degree. Wanna talk about the hollowing out of American Industry? Higher corporate and individual tax is a big part of it. It also discourages people from becoming welathy. Why innovate or provide a good or service when half of the value of that labor will get forcibly taken? Not only would this idea not work. High taxes causes capital flight and punishes those who strive to provide the most value to society. But its also evil. It involves the violent confiscation of property against people's will. If we lived under a less oppressive regime taxation would be voluntary. People will gladly pay for a service they believe is important to them and for their neighbors. Under a voluntary system people would quickly discover how much of the state is utterly unwanted.

The problem is once you show them that you can do more they will keep expecting you to do more and if you start to do less they will get rid of you and keep the nonproductive people who haven't had a "dip in productivity". So you'll keep working harder and they will give you the extra work that other people aren't doing.

I think one of the easiest concepts I noticed at a pretty young age was rent or cost of owning a home. Those costs are completely artificial. The only thing that is real is the land that the house sits on. That's the finite resource. The money we pay for taxes on the house is fake. Doesn't it seem a bit convenient that most jobs give us just enough money to make these payments and have a little left over for food and clothes? Seems like someone is using our labor to their advantage. Who came up with this pricing scheme? What if taxes and rent were lowered? Production would halt because people wouldn't have to work as much. So in other words, everything is created to keep us working just enough to drive the economy, so we can make enough money to "pay our bills".

They'll tell you the free market decides pricing based on supply and demand.... But guess what. It's bullshit. Every market is owned, manipulated and carefully managed to always have a shortage even during abundance. Perfect example is the diamond industry. That's how it is for everything. The riches 10 percent own 85 percent of ALL assets, but a smaller percent of that 10 owns a majority. It's also designed that over time, the future generations pay the bills for today's generation. If all bills came due today, the system would fail. Part of why inequity is getting worse every year, is that the rich simply push the bills onto the poorest and the working class, who continue getting deeper in debt. The rich never pay the bill. Best scheme ever invented.

As a young man, all I wanted to do was work hard for an honest wage. After decades of being in the workforce I learned going with the flow and getting along with your superiors is what this dishonest world wants. Its what helps things like the scamdemic get through. Hard working, honest people don't appreciate bs. On the other hand, lazy and dishonest people learn to live with it and thrive from it.

I’m a high school economics teacher at an international school in China. My job isn’t exactly pointless, but I feel 60%+ of it is essentially child care that is only needed because parents need to be at work for their pointless job, which renders that part of my job pointless by proxy. There is some “surrogate parenting” and contributing directly and indirectly to kids socialization and this part actually does feel rewarding and meaningful, but in practice it’s mostly just visibly exhibiting high future time orientation behaviors and self discipline hoping it will rub off. I felt so bad for the empty art room guard.

Then I spent the rest of my shift going for coffee breaks or pretending to work on my computer and hoping no one noticed that I had literally nothing to do😂 Sometimes I had to order new marketing materials, or reorganize things in the stoage room.. but that was about it.

My gf got written up because the job they had her on was supposed to produce 1,200 parts per shift, with an expected waste of 300 parts, because the machine would get out of adjustment every so often, and the operator would have to go get someone to fix it, then go back to work. She saw what the guy did to fix the machine, and so she would stop the machine now and then and check the adjustment, didn't go back to work. At the end of her shift, her supervisor came around with a clipboard to check off the number of good parts and bad parts, and the supervisor noticed that the waste bin was mostly empty. She asked my girlfriend why there weren't more bad parts, and when my girlfriend told her what she had been doing to keep the machine running right, the supervisor took her to the office for a lecture and a write-up. They literally didn't care about the fact that she had almost completely eliminated waste from that machine, it was just about meeting the expected numbers.

My job isn't meaningful or fulfilling. In fact, it's just a means to an end. The more money I get in my 20s and 30s, the faster I can retire. I'm not dying with my boots on.

After many jobs and two career changes, I'm a firm believer most weekly workplace hrs. (Usually 40hrs. a week) could be cut across the board, but paying people the same per week by increasing hourly wages would do absolutely 0 damage to the economy or the productivity. In fact I would argue it would increase productivity. Work has become dragging your feet trying to pass the time doing a job that could take you 15 minutes, but you have to stretch it out 8-10 hours in the day.

On an office job maybe. I work in industry running machines and creating hard product. There is literally no way in Hell my employer (who I know personally, compared to other bosses I've had) could pay us the same money for half of the time/work, and not go bankrupt. Our productivity is essentially based on time spent in-shop running machines and creating sell-able product. Hence we're paid hourly (and quite well compared to everything else right now). I'm of the opinion that office jobs are essentially a covert form of UBI anyway. The government needs them to keep the technically unproductive members of the population occupied and distracted (but also not starving) so they don't rebel. Likely I'm part of the one third of the economy that is actually real, and all you office guys are essentially living on covert welfare doing ultimately meaningless and superflous jobs that merely inflate the economy, instead of actually expanding it. I'm just imagining the sheer levels of base productivity that could be accomplished if we could employ even more people in jobs like mine, but its possible we just aren't producing/can't acquire the raw resources to do that, hence why "BS" jobs are needed.

In our economic system, a small amount of growth is momumentalyl better than stagnation.

They have the whole departments just to reduce how much money we would make... No phones allowed... So like the one guy was saying you'd be sitting there for 5 hours with no work some days and you didn't have a phone... It's literally just them proven a point that they can do it. Proven that they have the power over you. Even though it was the best paying job I've ever had with by far the best benefits and a pension I quit.

Capitalism is fun when u get a side hustle. I literally use to breed rats and sell them to pet stores. I could flip 12 dollars a month into 120 dollars and it was fun :::D

@@thesheep6248 first time I moved out I had a pet rat and a girlfriend who had a son. Moved out first time. I was stepdad. We broke up, sad and alone in a 3 bedroom trailer to myself and my rat. I decided I wasn't done being a father. Decided to get another rat. Two rats make more rats then more rats make more rats. $6 bag of pig food $6 bag of pine pellets. The initial setup wasn't cheap.. but eventually I could turn a profit selling to the local pet stores. bought a bunch of little plastic containers. Had about 200 rats in my spare empty rooms. Every now and then they would escape. At the 6-month mark I just accepted I live alongside of rats. Rats all over my house constantly. Constantly fixing the containers. I was now a prison guard. Clothes smelled like rat, but I was having fun. Eventually my landlord found out what I was doing and kicked me out so I moved back in with my mom. That was when I was 23, Now Im 27 and I breed rabbits.

It's interesting, too, because salaries seem to be inversely proportional to the amount of labor actually done. I've worked at around 10 different companies, and as I made my way from the field to a desk, my pay always went up, while the level of work to actually be done decreased.

I definitely agree with you. It doesn't make any sense. I've taken a similar path to you. Basically, workers are punished for working a labor type of job and rewarded for working a desk job. It's very strange. I have some theories on it, but they're just theories. I think there are some very powerful entities that run everything. Like people who are beyond rich, the ones on the backend of the government pulling the strings. Anyways, I think they built this sort of matrix that we live and work in and that's why these strange phenomenons happen.

@@chrisjohnson3967 I'm not sure it has anything to do with the government, other than the fact that they are being co-opted by rich/powerful people somehow. We see it every day in the USA - like in the fact that virtually no legislation is ever passed that the wider public wants/approves of. Only legislation that benefits/is approved by the very wealthy.

Ironically,here in Argentina a lot of people who voted for Mieli (who is an Anarcho-capitalist), were government employees who were angry that the poor strata received state backed subsidies-and almost everyone atributed our economic catastrophe only around this factor. Now all of them are in shock and awe as to why they are being kicked out of their public jobs 😂 . Another factor is that inflation,even though it is slowing down,is still going up due to the fact that most of the industry and workforce was affected by the slashing of the subsidies of electricity, water and gas - making prices go ballistic.

It seems jobs like this may be worldwide. Many years ago, here in Australia, while working for a government department, someone decided to pass a scrap newspaper page around an office with a slip of paper attached saying "Please note and sign". It eventually came back full of signatures. The scrap paper had been just a random page torn from a newspaper, which had absolutely nothing to do with the jobs being done there. Only one person questioned the piece of paper by writing "I have no idea what this is, but I am signing it regardless.". It just shows that there are some job places that workers just did their job, despite it not making any sense at all. As long as they kept getting their wages, they were happy.

Recently when I was in my last semester of university, there was something inside me that kept me from going into high paying, low effort software jobs. I would still put in the applications and solve their little useless Leetcode puzzles, because not applying would be kinda stupid. But when push came to shove I simply couldn't bring myself to grind Leetcode or to put effort into software interviews. My heart just wasn't in it. I think this concept of bullshit jobs puts what I was feeling into words. I was willing to take a slight pay cut to go into a line of work (electronics engineering) where I started building stuff that is genuinely crucial for society to function. And I think that's so much more fulfilling than being the guy who runs a K8s cluster that increases the efficiency of an internal sales department by 0.2%.

You don’t need to think too hard to come to a similar conclusion. In most jobs I have had 20% of workers do 80% of the work. Sure the 80% are present, they go through the motions, but they are pretty minimally productive in aggregate. By aggregate I mean when you consider the amount of administrative overhead needed to manage them effectively, and the amount of actually hands on hours they put in each day. Between bathroom breaks, smoke breaks, lunch breaks, casual conversations, personal phone calls, tardiness/consequences, and being idle, I think the average worker is focused on productivity for a couple hours a day. On the extreme high that is a full day of work, on the extreme low you get people who effectively pretend to work almost all day.

I've gone from having 120ish bucks at the end of the month to only having 400 in bills by living like a bum and cutting every penny out like id starve without it. Im in my early 20s and im hoping by being able to save 60% of my income i can outpace the economic downturn and actually buy some land.
