People Reveal Which Professions They Hate The Most

Paparazzi

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?"

"Psychic."

"Any kind, especially those who prey on people mourning the dead and convincing them they are speaking."- galacticracedonkey

Preach!

"Televangelists."- JewishSpace_Laser

Taylor Swift Probably Agrees

"The entirety of Ticketmaster."

"If they had to compete on a level playing field, your concerts would cost half of what they do."- VSM1951AG

Why You Should Never Answer A Number You Don't Recognize...

"Phone/text/email solicitations for anything."

"If I wanted to buy something or sell you my house I would contact you."

"F*ck off."- randomcanyon

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...

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
