Bullshit Jobs

Since we arrived here over two months ago we have seen many job ads posted in windows. The windows belong to cafes, pubs, restaurants and retail outlets. Is there a dearth of humans in this town willing to do demeaning tasks for minimum wage? It's not all Bullingdonians and trust fund inheritors, yet there are some, and that fact - that you might have to clean up the smashed crockery and vomit of a Tory child - may deter many from this employment.

Right when I started noticing the preponderance of job ads I read this review of David Graeber's Bullshit Jobs: A Theory. The book's probably unnecessary but the original thesis is vital.
