it is interesting that art/entertainment/media jobs rank so high in the useless/meaningless list. people that do art for art's sake instead of a job usually feel their work is profoundly meaningful at least to them.
- Given_47 3y agoYea that was peculiar. Could possible be that those in a position that r forced to optimize for money, which saps the enjoyment/fulfillment out of it
- bentt 3y agoIt is until you get a bad boss, bad project, or bad company. It is hard to extract meaningful artistic fulfillment from work at a company. Possible, but there are a lot of forces conspiring against it.
- MathMonkeyMan 3y agoA friend of mine is a line producer for television. Her job sounds like a stressful management job involving lots of middlemen, coordination, miscommunication, and corporate shenanigans. There are writers, directors, actors, and other creative people involved; but, as with anything else, the bulk of people are various forms of social glue just barely holding the thing together. I guess she at least can take pride when the show finishes production, and sometimes airs.
