People Discuss The Most Useless Jobs In Existence

It is normal to ask yourself occasionally, "does my job contribute anything substantive to society?" When I worked as a security guard at my college's library, I would have to watch unattended items on the security camera to make sure they weren't stolen. After almost a year of working at these libraries and countless hours watching footage of unattended laptops sitting on a table, I never saw an item get stolen. Never! Not once! My watching it had no positive impact whatsoever. That really made me question whether my job was futile or not, and the answer was leaning towards yes. 

No matter how useless our jobs might feel, there's no way they're the most useless jobs in the world. After all, being a Marketing and Communications Chair for Petco Corporate must contribute some good in this world, right? Some jobs can't help but show their slip about how bad and ungood they are for society. U/yeetthyself64 asked Reddit, "What job contributes nothing to society," and the people of Reddit had some compelling arguments.
