‘Bullshit jobs’: 35% of Brits think their job is pointless, survey finds
14th August 2015

‘More than 35 percent of workers in the UK think their job does not make any meaningful contribution to the world, but are not currently seeking more fulfilling employment, a new survey has revealed.

The research, carried out by YouGov, found that 50 percent of workers believe their job is in some way meaningful, while 13 percent are not sure.

On the whole, men (42 percent) are more likely than women (32 percent) to say their job has no meaning.’

Very optimistic considering that more like 90% of jobs are meaningless. But then, you need to decide what is meaningful. Just exerting some effort and getting paid to support yourself has meaning.
