r/BullshitJobs

I just got a role at a small company. My job is mostly browsing the internet and generating artwork to build a following on Instagram and X.

I just got a question for people doing similar jobs: How do you cope with doing this unethical shit? Because I need the money, but at the same time, it feels like I'm committing crimes against humanity or sum shit.

Diss me if you want, I appreciate feedbacks. I'm tired man, is there any other jobs that involve real work you guys recommend?

Im a new undergrad trying to find a job while coasting at my current one. Ideally Id be able to do something with content creation, graphic design, or anything on the creative side that gives me health insurance.

But everyone in Ad seems to be miserable and burnt out. I remember interviewing an art director for school and he looked so sad talking about how he wanted to do art full time but it just didn’t put food on the table.

I’ll admit part of the reason I want to go into ad is for the higher pay, benefits, and weekends off. I thought if I put in my four years Id be able to escape retail and go into something at least bearable but it feels like I’m just trading one cage for a slightly bigger one.

Idk this turned more into a vent but any advice or reassurance would be nice.

I want the level of seriousness people brought to company car admin to be brought to RUNNING OUR TOWN

Why

Why doesn't the world make sense
