It's a shame you think community manager is a bullshit job. Do you want to work the forums two hours a day rather than code? That's what the "community managers" at my workplace do, and I really appreciate it.
- iSnow 13y agoI do something like this in my spare time (not two hours a day of course) and would not ever consider it an occupation. But it's not community manager per se - I could have chosen grocery packers at the checkout too. I was trying to pick on fluff jobs that are only marginally useful and can only exist because they cannot easily be automated and add just enough of marginal value that companies decide to pay for it. I doubt anyone would notice if they were gone and replaced by an inferior automaton longer than 2 weeks. The point is: we are not reaping the fruits of 150 years of fierce rationalization, but fight for the 10% indispensable employees, keep the majority employed whether it makes sense or not - and pay the rest just enough that they don't starve. Seems dysfunctional to me.
