Just a few ways to be profitably and pleasantly (if uselessly) employed, from Stanley Bing’s book, “100 Bulls**t Jobs and How to Get Them” (Harper Collins).

A reader from California writes:

Advertising agencies and marketing gurus hire you to manage the dirty work they claim to not have time to do.  It costs more to hire you than the time it takes to find suppliers and deals on their own.  Everyone knows the mark up is astronomical, but if they want to fit you into their budget — Take em for what its worth!

Readers, what do you think? Is this a bulls**t job?
