"You have to have bullshit jobs, that's just what bureaucracy requires; people just have to sit around at their jobs doing nothing useful for an advanced society that manages its resource flows; it is demonstrable that things cannot be other than they are..."

    people doing this kind of work brand-eternal are irreducible bureaucrats, sorry to ruin your fun.

    no but genuinely, is it kind of knee jerk defense of administrative state (say person doing permits for water usage or whatever?) as not bullshit job? cool, we agree. but cast you eye to economy, is a lawyer protecting nestle against slave labor charges necessary for less shit society function (or does it produce somethin necessary for society reproduction)? is their law firm with couple of thousands employees? is ad agency necessary? is mckinsey? it obviously is necessary for capitalist reproduction, but not so much for non capitalist one.
