Basics

  • Essentially UBI by disguesed capitalist means
  • Defonition
    • A Meaningless ie "bs" jobs that are esentially doing nothing
    • Ie unpacking and repacking the same box for 8hrs a day ie no Deliverables and it is easily automated/replaced by other services
  • Examples:
    • Making small decisions for days to weeks (ie green or blu logo uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh (3 weeks later + 5 meetings) )
    • Using Beurocracy and Jargon to Disguise Lack of Progress
    • Lots of arbitrary titles (ie super-junior-assistant business planner)
    • General too much beuracracy / overorganization
    • The world not being worse off, or even better with the job, without thing "a" (ie Middlemen etc)
    • People do not like the job (ie deadend jobs (outside of service jobs which are ESSENTIAL) )
    • Useless Gameification (ie prizes for useless work)
    • Excessive HR
    • Pay = suffering based, not deliverable based
      • Thus humans and capitalism optimize suffering not productivity
  • TLDR the world does this and it is a cautionary tale from a great book
  • Also Jobs that are only complex "looking busy"
