Crisis in Perception

Why So Much Work Feels Pointless | Bullshit Jobs (Deep Dive)


Listen Later

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world β€” one book at a time.

This episode explores Bullshit Jobs by David Graeber, a critique of modern work systems in which large numbers of people perform jobs they believe serve no real purpose.

The discussion examines how administrative and managerial roles have expanded despite technological progress, why meaningless work causes psychological harm, and how political and moral incentives sustain this system. Rather than treating the problem as individual failure, the episode frames pointless work as a structural feature of contemporary economies.
