Entry: The Great Education Bubble Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/the_great_education_bubble#26112 Post contents: David, I should have better explained myself. What I meant by meaningless is that the job has little meaning for the person doing it. Many people find meaningful work (some doctors, pastors, lawyers, nonprofit workers, teachers, etc). However, I have a difficult time believing that someone working for an insurance company finds meaning in his work. Such environments are like white-collar assembly lines, with each person doing a portion of what the corporation needs to function. However, while meaningless, such work does make a few rich. Those running large corporations certainly profit from the work done by the lower-level workers. That's what I meant by my above statements. Sent at: 2008 07 24
