Probably some kind of diversity and inclusion director for a university in cali.

Runner up has to be an NHS GP. Brb following NICE guidelines flowchart and earning £100k, anything you are not sure of just refer to a real doctor then leave at 4:30 and get into your 911. Most struggle with anything above basic arithmetic or probability and are a decade behind research. The NHS has had to ban purchases of fax machines now lmao.

from my experience Car salesman(not managers) and Real Estate Agents. Typically neither knows jack **** about what they are selling and its pretty easy to spot it. I cant tell you how many car sales people I asked about loan structuring and they didnt have the slightest clue how loans even work, like WTf your jobs is based on almost 90% of sales involving financing and you cant even explain to a customer how the loan works?

The average real estate agent is dumb as a box of rocks...but then again, the average real estate agent barely makes a livable wage.

The finance office typically handles the loans, floor salesmen are essentially any warm body they got off the street.

Most medics have probably never seen seen one of these unless they are hardcore into research and even then they'll typically be research scientists not MDs.

yeah and their advice is usually some generic ass chit and they are not on the forefront of knowledge, by the time it becomes mainstream medical knowledge it is already very old. If you asked one for weight loss advice or exercise advice or hair regrowth, they would give you absolute terrible generic advice. All they really do day to day is write scripts for oldcels with high blood pressure and diabetes.

yeah teachers get overrated as fuk. they get great pay and are unionized and always constantly complaining and begging for more money.


a lot of other jobs like say real estate or various sales, most of those people are despised but everyone atleasts pretends to like and support teachers. most of them are fuking retards and now are using online programs to grade elementary school level classes, talk about laziness, just have the computer teach the kid at that point.

sure but its the job of the care salesman to be able to address that **** and it can be a very useful sale tool to be able to convince someone how low they could pay but be honest about it. If someone walks in and they say they want to pay $450 a month and the sales person shows them a **** load of cars they cant afford that would at minimum be $650 a month based on their credit, debt to income ratio, salary etc... because they have no knowledge of loans, they are wasting both of their times and not going to get a sale.

Most people come in with a price in mind, either a total figure like $15k or as I said $450 /mo payment. Knowing both of those numbers a halfway decent car salesman who took 1-2 days just to learn the fukking basics could be much more apt to make a sale. But no. They barely even know what the fukking difference in price is from a v6 to a v8 or what model comes with which features without looking at the gotdayum sticker.

Recruiters have to be the dumbest generalists on the planet. Middle men (usually girls) who get paid 30,000-75,000 to help other people get jobs. Their job is cold calling candidates, and looking at resumes all day.

Luckily I have enough years of working experience not to get the total retards now. I used to get idiots that did little more than keyword match and were unable to pronounce technologies in their supposed speciality industry. The sloots that keep adding me on linkedin are hot though, that should probably be new tinder.

maybe some people consider that chemistry. but they are sometimes interlinked
thats great brah but i dont front like i retained everything in school as a stemcel and medical types dont retain everything either. there is a reason if you have a more rare disease it takes a long time to diagnose and they rule out all the simple chit first and then go and try to find the "smartest" doctors to take a look at it, some of them are very smart, retain a lot of that stuff and are good sleuths but 95% of medical work is the same common diagnoses and same problems over and over again and you dont have to be that smart to do it

Not saying the dumbest, but for awhile the state was hurting for more correctional officers, 2014-2018ish, so they hired pretty much anyone who applied and did not have a distinct disqualifying factor. Given some of the situations and overall job duties, it's amazing who got in.

Few examples: 2 guys took an inmate on a transport to a hospital, not once did they put any restraints on him, no leg irons, waist chain, hand cuffs, nothing. Not on the drive, at the hospital, or the drive back; they got caught on it when coming back and the OP Sgt. was checking the van at the vehicle sally port. Once guy said "Oops, I fcked up." and lost 5% pay for a year, the other tried to deflect blame and argued about it, he got fired (for many other dumb things, not just this).

Another C/O, with maybe 2-3 weeks in at the prison, brought her phone in (big no no itself), but then she ******** live streamed from a control booth, saying "just another day hard at work!" Well, phone in prison, unapproved video (security issues); she was fired the next day, fastest I think I have ever seen someone fired.

Another guy (who surprisingly still works there) was at the hospital on coverage, and an IV started beeping, so this guy, wanting (said he was studying for it) to be a nurse decided to go over and fck with it to shut it off. Not even an inmate's IV, just some random person. Actual nurse sees this and calls the prion to complain, guy is never again allowed at hospitals, we barely avoid a lawsuit and he is surprisingly not fired. I have a lot of stories on this guy and the one from the first story who got fired.

Plenty of others. Firearm safety? WTF is that?

Inmate is down on the ground and no longer fighting? Better spray him!

So many lower level people in medicine act like this. I cannot imagine why they almost seek a lawsuit out.

maybe for other things not relating to cars(for mechanics) but do you know how to diagnose an issue other than just running codes, then work around and take apart parts without damaging them to replace say a fault oil pressure sensor, replace it, then hook everything back up?
Or taking apart the console of a car and working around to super hard places to replace a fan motor that would take 4 hours and a lot of frustration on your part without specific tools and knowledge of tricks?

u probably never worked an actual tradie job lol. you need to be incredibly smart for a lot of the trades. where 1/8th inch makes a huge difference. a lot if it is applied math. measure, measure, 1/8th here, 1/6th, tools here, need this material and that material. and most of the time you don't have time to go to a desk and computer to think about it. you think about it on the spot.

what ur thinking is probably construction or manufacturing labourer. which does take some intellectual skill. it's not easy. i've been there. some of them are easy, like if ur just a bring materials here guy.

a lot of manual labour people are very intelligent too, the thing that they lack however is people skills.

Generally speaking, I wouldn't assume someone's job is easy unless I have done it.


Quality control / auditors / supervisors / adjusters

A vast majority of time these are people don't know how to do anything or they have never done anything but they know enough to know how it's supposed to go and they go around critiquing what others are doing, trying to tell them what to do, expect them to figure it out, and then they take credit for everything,
