100 Bullshit Jobs And How To Get Them
by Stanley Bing (9780060734794)

What do being a Feng Shui advisor, executive headhunter, high-level marketing guru, senior sales/marketing director, vineyard wine pourer, wedding planner and Asda greeter have in common? They're all bullshit jobs. God must have loved them, because he made so many of them. The people lucky and skillful enough to have secured bullshit employment are everywhere, in virtually every field from ayurvedic healing to zoo management. The people who work in these coveted bullshit positions enjoy the best lives imaginable, they are paid well, they work very little and their professions are highly respected, because nobody really knows what they do. What, for instance, are the actual functions performed by a McKinsey consultant? Other than sitting around making people nervous? None. That's what he does. And by next Tuesday, he'll probably be your boss's boss! What does an aroma therapist actually do? Sniff things? Yes! For loads of money, that's what! What is a clinical psychologist actually doing when he or she is nodding at a suffering depressive? Nodding, that's all. For [pound]100 an hour! Now that is bullshit. And you can get into a big pile of it, too, thanks to Stanley Bing, who knows whereof he speaks and has based his entire career and several best-selling books on his own very special brand of bullshit.
