30 Jobs That People Once Respected But Realized Are Done By Awful People

According to a 2023 Ipsos survey of 22,816 people from 31 countries, doctors are the top trusted profession (58%), followed by scientists (57%), and teachers (53%).

At the very end of the list, we have journalists (24%), business leaders (24%), advertising executives (18%), government ministers (17%), and general politicians (13%).

Reddit user OnAFalseErrand wanted to know which of the latter were long in the making, so they asked everyone on the platform to share the occupations they once had a lot of respect for but ultimately lost every ounce. Below are the replies that generated the most buzz in the discussion.

This should be much higher up the chart, at least from the UK perspective No politician will give a straight answer to a question. The UK has had two months of a new government and they are so immersed in sleaze that they have already lost any respect the county may have had for them. Accepting money from poarty donors for new clothes, Taylor Swift concert tickets, glasses, football matches in private boxes, trips tpNew York to stay in a millionaires luxury appartment, money for parties and travel. The list goes on and on. Pensioners are being deprived of a heating allownce that has been running for many years, yet the woman who has cancelled their £300 per year has claimed expenses of £4,400 for her heating. The sickening contempt for the voters is disgusting. The police should also be up there with politicians.

Whatever grudges people might have about the workforce, one of the biggest things they hate about it is artificial intelligence.

According to a new FlexJobs survey, 34% of respondents believe AI will lead to job displacement in the next five years.

Their 2024 Future of Work Report polled over 3,000 U.S. workers and showed that:

21% rely on AI for professional and work-related purposes—up 10% from 2023.
48% believe AI is a current or potential threat to their job security.
17% describe their AI knowledge and skills as “great” (13%) or “excellent” (4%), versus 46% who rated their abilities as “fair” (25%) or “poor” (21%).

They basically bankrupted him, destroyed his life, and hired experts to discredit him in court.

30 Jobs That People Once Respected But Realized Are Done By Awful People Car mechanics.

I worked in the field for 40 years, and there were always bad actors, but the norm was that something would be diagnosed and repaired as needed, and you tried to keep the bill down and respect the customer and the car. The normal markup on parts was 40% for ages. Now it's fairly normal for shops to just replace everything that might cause a problem (instead of diagnosing it), and markups are almost always over 100%. Customers get a $2,000 estimate for a small issue, with a shrug, "take it somewhere else if you want".

The number of guys on the job who don't know or care to know how to actually service things rather than just swapping new parts in is appalling.

They straight up lie, they make negotiation more complex between seller/landlord and buyer/renter. They make an already stressful situation worse to deal with. I actually believe their jobs are now redundant in the modern age where the internet can do a better job of advertising and owners/landlords do a better job of showing you around.

Politicians have become (even more) spineless and all they're doing is saving their jobs and securing income for themselves and family.

Journalists because they've stopped explaining who has expertise and a decade in the job and who has just done a google search. But they don't they give equal importance under the guise of fairness. But that's not fairness, that's spreading misinformation.

Real estate agents do more than just walk you around. They make sure you are compliant with the law, and help make sure you don't sign a contract that screws you. And while all sales people lie, there are actually laws, at least where I live, that dictate what an agent can and can't say. Laws that are strict enough that there is basically malpractice insurance for realtors.

Some of them are the most crooked, racist, sexist, homophobic people I've ever met, who continuously cover up each other's mistakes and drive out anyone who is any way a threat / has any morals.

The people who are the worst get promoted. There's a crazy amount of officers who go to court for assaulting inmates in "self defence", come back and get promoted. Lots of people get "investigated" for misdeeds and the person in charge of the investigation are their uncles / parents / inlaws. Unsurprisingly, they're found innocent. These people earn £50-80k a year for doing nothing, and are on the world's largest power trip. Getthe job through nepotism then never leave. Basically a bunch of thuggish bullies.

Had one senior manager brag about how when he started in the 90s, him and his coworker stripped a prisoner down naked and used as a staple gun on his ballsack. I was talking about the standford prison experiment (he'd never heard of it). He asked, "oh, dyou think yhat counts as brutality?" Have a ton more stories like this. I was there less than a year.

I had one who was giving me exercises so light i dont think they took in to account i was a regular exerciser and gym goer before the injury and the exercises were far far too simple. I had another who regularly pulled out a little book that looked like it was £5.99 from Amazon on leg exercises and another who i told repeatedly i had a back problem and they just focused on my knees for weeks and weeks (it was later proven to be a back problem).

You get what you pay for. The NHS is undermanaged - it has 20% fewer managers than any organisation of comparable size, according to the King's Fund. But the taxpayer doesn't understand what managers do, so they don't want to pay for them. And, of course, RIGHT at the top you've got to contend with the politicians at the Department of Health, who will never do the right thing when they get spend the same amount of effort managing how the newspapers refer to them.

30 Jobs That People Once Respected But Realized Are Done By Awful People Midwives. I work in a hospital and I’ve been unfortunate to work at a very high level for a while a few years back. The midwives were the most vile, abusive and toxic cohort. Totally delusional. Thinking they’re better, more important and special. I copped more abuse off them than the rest of the hospital put together. Recently (in a different role) I had the misfortune to have to go to their ward to review a patient. I got interrogated about who I am and why I’m there 7 times on my first visit and 11 times on my second visit. Yes I kept a tally. They were aggressive, argumentative and generally bullies.
I got a very irate phone call from their discharge planner about my patient demanding I create the patients discharge plan then getting angry when I didn’t know what she was on about. The discharge planner had not spoken to the patient about what and how they wanted to discharge. I suggested the midwife have a discussion with the patient rather than me and reminded her of putting the patient at the centre of her care.

I’m torn about writing this as I am friends with a couple of midwives and they’re great. But they seem to be the few and far between.

30 Jobs That People Once Respected But Realized Are Done By Awful People For me, dentists.

Growing up, dentists were people who stopped you eating sweets, but actually cared about your health.

But as an adult, they just seem money hungry, as they seem to find issues where you've never had them before. Fiancé was told they needed 12 fillings (2 pretty big ones, the rest small ones), and went to a different dentist to have them done (as they are anxious about dentists, so needed a specialist). The dentist looked at their mouth and said "You don't need any fillings, no idea why your dentist said you needed any".

This happened a week after the same dentist gave me a filling on a chipped tooth... Which just over a month later abscessed, and I find out the dentist was fired from the practice. So him alone completely turned my view of dentists on its head... And my current dentist seeming to always have something extra to charge me extra for...

In this case, 'the Crown' means that archaeological finds wil become property of the state/country, not Charles personally; it's just a manner of speaking. As for royal families: don't forget they generate trade and thus jobs and income for their countries. They also push forward those charitable causes that otherwise won't get the attention they need. Lastly, it's not much of a fairy tale. Sure, you don't need to worry about paying bills and whether you have enough to retire on, but the continuous scrutiny, the obligation to look good (especially for the women), the criticism, the not-being-able to express your own opinions on anything, the set calendar of events...this all makes it less of a fairy tale and more of a bit of a grind.

I injured my Hamstring pretty bad one time and now it often flares up if I try and resistance train and the GP just googled “hamstring stretches” in front of me and printed off a page of stretching designed for the elderly.

30 Jobs That People Once Respected But Realized Are Done By Awful People Controversially, builders/laborers.

They seem to come in 2 distinct categories.
Reliable cowboys, or unreliable craftsmen.
You either seem to get a bunch of workers who turn up do the "work" quoted and leave, but when you find out all of the corners that were cut you end up having to foot the bill for repairs as they won't ever return.

Then you get the ones with great repertoires, good reviews and generally coming in at a higher price point. You know you're going to get good results from them. The problem is *if* they turn up. Take "I'll be there at 10am Tuesday" with a large pinch of salt. They will also prioritise jobs on value. My friend had put £2k down on a new kitchen worth £10k, agreed on a start date. Start date came, nobody turned up. When he rang to see what was happening they said they needed to push it back a month. When down on the high street of the village he lives in, the contractors vans (small company, only have 2) were both parked outside a restaurant that had recently closed for renovation. He called and asked what it was about, they said that the bigger job had to take priority.

They're a group of people that I wouldn't trust as far as I could throw them.
