Bullshit Jobs
(Redirected from BS Jobs)
Basics
- Essentially UBI by disguesed capitalist means
- Proposed origionally by a book of the same name
- A good OTS example of the OSE Book (s)
Definition
- 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" only, or largely
- People do not get pleasure from these (even with breaks etc)
- For example some brutal torture is a similar in real metaphor:
- "starve them, let them make a pot of soup, then force them to dump it down the drain" - considered some of the most brutal / numberg trial-able
- ie why is this our job system in the "real" world
- For example some brutal torture is a similar in real metaphor:
Solution Proposed
- Polymaths + Growth Mindset + Meaningful Jobs + Proper work ours + passion and fun in the workspace
- Pie in the sky? Yes. Doable? Yes (ie all of ose lol)
- BE THE CHANGE
