I don't think you give people enough credit. There are a lot of people who view those "pointless bad jobs" as opportunities and who can and will work hard to make the most of them. Not defending the abusive practices of companies, but who are you to decide whether someone else' job is pointless and bad? When I was in college a sociology class showed a video on factory conditions in china in the early 2000s. The point of the video (and class) was that companies are evil and will exploit you with terrible jobs with no path for advancement etc The work conditions were terrible, but people chose to work in those jobs. They moved from rural homes with little economic opportunity and ended up contributing to one of the greatest periods of economic growth and wealth creation in history I know very little about china and am not defending workplace abuses, but for many people those terrible jobs were opportunities that paid off for them
