In your opinion, what is the most useless job?

Question

I think it’s parking enforcement. They offer absolutely nothing to society other than ruining someone’s day.

Parking enforcement is important otherwise people would park wherever they liked blocking entrances, on people's property, disabled spots, yellow lines, blocking the flow of traffic and causing accidents. There are places where you are not supposed to park for a reason.

Recently had an argument with a neighbour who had a party and parked her car in my driveway and out my front, I had to park half a block away because she refused to move and was very threatening about it. My husband took it thick and parked his truck right in front of her car for a week so she couldn't get it out, and when she demanded he move it but told her to get off the property as she was trespassing. She went full Karen mode and called the police who backed up what my husband told her and told her to calm down or she'd be arrested. She never dared do it again.

As for useless jobs I would have said lifeguard at the Olympics but I recently seen a video where an athlete fell unconscious underwater and her coach and lifeguards had to save her.

I think Store greeter is the most useless job, I see them all the time at Wallmart. Restroom attendant is another. How about social media influencer or tele marketer.

Gender studies teachers, models, and politicians are all pretty useless. Being an "influencer" isn't even a job.

No job is a useless job, they all serve a purpose to society. If no one would do a particular job, then who would do that job.

The only jobs that are useless to society, are the jobs that treat people, like slaves, abuse people, or use a person for thier own greed and selfish purpose.

People like Captain toms family, are useless to us, cause they have used, his name to benefit themselves and make money. They think they are so important now, cause their father did a great deed for the NHS, they are now abusing the publics trust.

I do not like people are jobs that to decieve people or use people for their own personal gain, when the sole purpose is not used for a charity.

It's not parking enforcement. I can tell you I lived in a dorm in college with limited parking for residents only, and even 10 extra cars meant that you...who was paying for those spots...couldn't park anywhere, so having them there towing cars meant we could park. Working downtown and around hospitals, I've seen some egregious people parking in places like blocking exits to buildings and parking over sidewalks and the like. Read the signs, have your permits, stop parking in handicap spots if you don't have tags, and you'll be fine.

@kingofkings1992 - park properly instead of being a douchebag and you never hear from one even if you live to be 150. Parking enforcement is there too keep idiots from annoying others. You park in the wrong spots you are potentially blocking intersections, entrances, exits, double parking, etc and basically being a pain in the ass

I’m leaning towards a Pet Psychic on this one because let’s get serious here if I bring a goldfish to a Pet Psychic WTF are they actually going to tell a fish or tell me about the fish.

GreenLanternI0I · Answer

Wrong, if parking wouldn't be enforced than other people who need to make a quick stop and get what they need close by wouldn't be able to get those spots, people are extremely selfish and they need a strong reason not to do a bad or selfish thing. If parking meters wouldn't be enforced then people would be living their cars there for days on end.

If a job gives a person income to get along - how can it be useless?

Anyhow, there's a range of jobs (or professions) that offer next to no benefit to ''society'' overall.

On top of my own list that would be (as a selection):

- dating coach

- youtuber

- quality controller in a Chinese factory

- astronaut

- bell boy

- 5 star ''Chef''

i think parking enforcement is important. cause else people would litterally park in the drive way to the hospital ER.

i think the most useless job is politician. cause in the day of digitalization, we could just have a digital sysstem where people can vote on policies. no need for these charlatans. taking our money to stuff it into their own and some into the richest corporations pockets
