Make a census of the shittiest fucking work on Earth and start automating from there. In 10 years the shittiest job will be feeling ennui smoking a long cigarette under a crescent moon on a little Perisian rooftop

There is a lot of different kinds of labor that people would find rewarding to do if the pay wasn’t so degrading. I mean look at the way trash collectors are considered now, it’s a unionized respectable job in many places even though it’s also gross.

I still remember doing farm work as some of the best most fulfilling work I’ve ever done, and the biggest reason was that I was actually also getting paid well to do all that manual labor (this was marijuana).
