I understand your thinking here. Maybe we need something like Dirty Jobs but for non-dirty jobs too.

- nostrademons 11y agoMy last startup did something like that - we interviewed close to a hundred people to figure out what they really did in their jobs. It was targeted towards undergrads, as a form of career guidance, but it turns out to be very hard to get people to pay attention to career guidance that doesn't directly lead to getting a job. We also tried refocusing toward older young professionals (late-20s), but that had the same problem: it's much easier to sell a service that's task-focused than one that's discovery-focused. My sense is that there's probably not a viable business there but it may make an interesting hobby blog-series, if you can get people to participate.
