Deep down, nearly all parents dream of at least one of their children becoming a doctor, lawyer, or high-earning professional.

This doesn't mean they aren't still proud of their children if they enter a profession that doesn't exactly make them rich but brings them joy and also brings joy and happiness to others.

Even if it doesn't stop others from passing judgment on their career of choice.

In fact, there are some careers that are almost universally viewed as a hindrance, if not a threat, to modern society.

Jobs that might cause harm to the environment, or jobs that barely qualify as jobs, which no one should actually be paid to do.


Redditor Modern_Devil was curious to hear which professions people felt had a negative influence on society, leading them to ask:
"What is the most bullshit profession that actually exists?"

Before we pass judgment, we should always remember that some people simply need to earn a living, and don't think any more fondly of these professions than we do.

Even if it doesn't make calls from telemarketers any less frustrating...
