Do you feel your job is important and are you proud to do it? - Lemmy.World

I’m lucky that I can say yes. That said, I still wouldnt do it for free. What about you, how do you feel about your job/career/field in general?

No and no. I help produce luxury goods for obscenely rich people… 2 units of our product, depending on configuration is my entire years salary…

I know the feeling. I worked as a gunsmith for a certain well-know ultra-luxury hunting rifle maker, and obscene is the word: we made 12 guns per year and that kept 15 people employed. Our cheapest shotgun sold for just under 100k. Our customers would come and buy those things as if it was some cheap trinket.

Yeah, it gave 15 people a job. But nothing of value was produced to society.
