A bullshit sector, but the jobs themselves are not "bullshit jobs". Also, the climate change stuff here is a total non sequitur, stick to the discussion. I agree with you - everyone should eat a plant-based diet - but it's incredibly off-putting in this context. The worst part about being vegan is other vegans. There will always be food service jobs, and they will always be tedious and taxing, and also not bullshit jobs. That would still be true even if they were serving ideologically-correct foodstuff.
- myshpa 3y ago> A bullshit sector, but the jobs themselves are not "bullshit jobs" If a sector (industry) is bullshit, the jobs are too. > the climate change stuff here is a total non sequitur I was reacting to 'with a good manager, they will remind you of the meaning inherent in the work. At McD's, perhaps: "Remember folks, we're getting hungry people fed, hard working folks deserve a fresh hot meal"' Serving hungry people "fresh" hot meal does not alone make it non-bullshit job. Maybe I was not clear enough ... consuming meat & dairy destroys the environment (and animal agriculture is the main culprit), and not consuming meat & dairy is a best way to stop anthropocenic crisis (overshoot). There are enough peer reviewed scientific studies that confirm that. Ask if you want more sources. > The worst part about being vegan is other vegans Funny, but somehow relevant: https://i.redd.it/xuwnig93hg6b1.jpg https://i.redd.it/xuwnig93hg6b1.jpg > There will always be food service jobs, and they will always be tedious and taxing ... serving ideologically-correct foodstuff By definition those are not bullshit jobs.
