Businesses are in it for the money, employees tend to be one of the larger expenses, so maintaining some bullshit positions that would cost them money doesn’t make fiscal sense, so what’s up?

    Those two things are not at all similar. The idea of bullshit jobs is not a propaganda thing like unskilled labor. The guy that wrote this book Bullshit Jobs would probably find that what most people think of as unskilled labor are some of the most not bullshit and most important jobs there are.

    Although the guy has a lot of debatable ideas that I don’t fully agree with. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit_Jobs
