"Pointless jobs" for whom? It definitely puts food on the table for said persons' families, that is definitely not "pointless". Or do you think a lady in her 50s will just hop into any job at her discretion? (no, "community stuff" will just not cut it, you need at least a university diploma for that).
And this comes after those discussions on the tens of thousands of pointless jobs inside FAANG companies, a discussion that we had a few days ago. Jobs which are paid very handsomely, btw.
- whimsicalism 4y agoIf we are compelling companies to pay for people that they would otherwise not, that seems like a job without use. Give people welfare without giving them jobs that are drags on progress.

The world functioned fine before any and every random job required a university diploma and would be better off if people stopped asking for them. You would think on a site worshipping the famed hacker-without-a-degree this opinion would be absent. > Or do you think a lady in her 50s will just hop into any job at her discretion? Come on, this is an obvious strawman
