Anything that is described as “knowledge work” is usually closer to this. It’s might still hard, but in a different way, and you’re respected and people don’t question you as long as you get results.
But bullshit jobs still feel like work it’s that what we produce from our work might not really be necessary, or good.
If this doesn’t describe you then it’s not about you, though
I definitely have a bullshit job, but it’s lower down in the hierarchy (read: underpaid but without my work nothing in the company happens)
The people above me definitely don’t seem to have shit to do because all of the people from my team that were “underperforming” had an individual meeting with an HR lead, our team lead, and the market operations lead. To basically tell us “yeah you have to work harder and we don’t care if it’s physically impossible and you’re not getting support”
