I get the usage as a dig at do nothing office jobs, but what are these jobs really? I’ve never worked in an office or known anyone who did well enough to ask.
So what are these jobs actually like? How do they exist in the first place? Could I lie my way into getting one lol?
Thanks for the description! What would you consider to be an email job?
no clue, never had one. I’ve had some friends who did logistics(?) work that seemed to be mostly emails. One that worked at wind turbine company, her job seemed to be mostly emailing vendor fairs to make sure that they could set up a booth there. No idea what her job title was.
Graeber’s Bullshit Jobs (book not essay) presumably has some examples since it’s the source of this line of thought. I haven’t read it
