> Software, Finance, and to a point Sales are the "normal" jobs out there that work in a similar way because its largely non-fungible. An amazing trader or dev might make the firm 100x revenue than an average trader. A bad dev or trader brings in Negative value as they make things worse. The hard part, and what a lot of engineers should focus on, is putting a dollar figure on that. > a better teacher does not bring in 10x revenue to a district, a worse teacher doesn't create 10x losses. Even though teachers have a large societal effect, there is no direct revenue analysis you can do to show what the replacement value is. To me that's an incredible opportunity for companies in the education sector to bring an alternative business model where compensation is based on track record. I'm certain a lot of parents would be very interested to hire tutors that have a good track record of their students going to top 10 schools for example.
