简介：想象一下，你接了一项工作，为一个大型公司会议写一份两页的报告，你拿到了1.2万英镑的报酬，结果那次会议根本没有讨论这份报告；或者，你一家出版公司当前台，电话每天响一次，而你只需要把盘子装满薄荷糖，以及一周给一台老爷钟上一次发条。
这样的工作在David Graeber的著作《扯淡的工作》里比比皆是。这本发人深思又妙趣横生的书宣称，世界上到处是没有意义的工作，而且越来越多。
作者根据逾250份网友自述写了这本书。格雷伯坦言，这些结果“从大多数形式的统计分析来说可能是不充足的”。格雷伯据此把无意义工作分成了“flu”，“goons”，“duct-tapers”，“box-tickers”和“taskmasters”五类，寻找和解释无数毫无意义角色的存在。
From bestselling writer David Graeber, a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs, and their consequences.
Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled “On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs.” It went viral. After a million online views in seventeen different languages, people all over the world are still debating the answer.
There are millions of people—HR consultants, communication coordinators, telemarketing researchers, corporate lawyers—whose jobs are useless, and, tragically, they know it. These people are caught in bullshit jobs.
Graeber explores one of society’s most vexing and deeply felt concerns, indicting among other villains a particular strain of finance capitalism that betrays ideals shared by thinkers ranging from Keynes to Lincoln. Bullshit Jobs gives individuals, corporations, and societies permission to undergo a shift in values, placing creative and caring work at the center of our culture. This book is for everyone who wants to turn their vocation back into an avocation.
