“Dude just talking to people, everyone can do that”.
What’s your job?
Social work and sex ed with a smidgen of research.
“Jo, can you hack this instagram account for me? Shouldn’t be that hard, everything needs to be the same in your world”
“See that lab Tech over there? All he ever does is just clean the same tools all day”
“So, you just spend all day reading books, right?”
I am a programmer, which means that either I sit around doing nothing all day because chatgpt is doing my job, or I am the guy fixing printers around here.
I move little icons around, press little square buttons and the higher-ups are happy
People pay me money, and then I worry about the same things that they worry about, only more eloquently.
To be clear, this is not to insult on anyone’s job. It is a just way to observe if the workers are aware of their occupation’s stereotypes or not.
I turn computers off and on again
Bean counter.
I make executives look good via fancy PPT and PBIs (business consultant).
