YouTube influencer.

The person whose job it is to send physical spam mail. Nobody even reads it anymore.

In my experience: A large percentage of middle management. Usually they just wind up inventing make work reports so they can appear to be adding value.

My MIL tells me that during the days of the USSR there were people who sat at desks at the entrances of subway stations. They didn’t actually do anything, but that was their job since by law for a while in the Soviet Union everyone needed to have a job.

Telemarketer. No one likes them, and if your business plan relies on it, you should just run a better business.

Driving around Las Vegas I passed a mobile dog treadmill service. They come to your house and let your dog walk on a treadmill inside a Sprinter van

Bathroom attendant. Elevator operator. Social Media Influencer.

I think clowns are a bit unnecessary

Casino Barge Captain Many places in the US have riverboat casino laws that are used to justify large casino barges that are tethered in position and never move, not even having any engines or other means of conveyance. Since they are technically barges despite being immobile they are legally required to have a Captain certified to operate vessels of that tonnage and crew on board at all times of operation. I can’t imagine a more gravy position than “exist on the premises with your piece of paper”

Anyone involved in an MLM.

Elevator Operator. It’s a union job. A dude sits in a chair next to the buttons. He asks you what floor you want to go to and he pushes the button.

For the states that require it, the gas station employees that fill up your tank. I ended up in New Jersey and it was super awkward.

Car sales people. Because you end up dealing with the sales manager when you actually purchase the vehicle. Car sales people can’t even give you a price without checking with sales manager. They are literally there to babysit you.

There’s something called a Bubbler. They go to festivals and blow those really big bubbles and pretty much get paid to look good doing it to promote the event

The person who named the PS5 and got paid 600,000 dollars for it. Yes, this actually happened.

The guy who writes the terms of service in any website

After extensive research(the first answer on google) the most unnecessary job is: Paper Towel Smeller. I swear I’m not even joking its a real job
