I'm interested: how do you see it as a broken framework? Are you speaking of those who contest bullshit jobs and use them as an excuse for not working in certai

  Part of the reason I didn't write it out was because I feel like I've written the same thing in 5 threads on this topic. The entire framework is just code for being unhappy about your job. I'm not saying the job isn't bullshit, at least from the perspective of the person doing it (although it almost certainly isn't from the perspective of the person paying you to do the work), but what next? It feels like some people want to make subjectively bullshit jobs illegal, which is idiotic. If you aren't saying we should make it illegal, and you are just venting, then fine, but is venting about not liking you're job really so fascinating that the same article needs to get posted evvery other week. If your job is bullshit, get a different one, or acknowledge that right now that bullshit job is better than nothing. What other options possibly are there?

    What other options possibly are there? That's kind of the whole problem with the epidemic of Bullshit Jobs -- there just aren't all that many jobs out there which don't fall into one of 3 categories: (1) Abusive (2) Low-paying / unstable / insecure (3) Bullshit or all of the above.
