What are 'useless jobs'?

Useless jobs, often referred to as 'bullshit jobs,' are positions that employees themselves believe make no meaningful contribution to society, the organization, or the individual. These jobs may involve unnecessary paperwork, redundant management, or tasks that could be automated or eliminated without negative impact. The concept was popularized by anthropologist David Graeber, who argued that a significant number of people feel their work is pointless or unfulfilling. While some debate exists about which jobs are truly 'useless,' the term generally applies to roles perceived as lacking purpose or value.

Job Type: Part-time temporary
Job Number: FY24-044
Department: Library & Academic Resource Center
Opening Date: 05/01/2024
Description
MACC Peer Tutors needed for math, science, and writing courses. Build your work experience while meeting new people and receiving satisfaction from helping other students. Tutoring helps you gain self-confidence, reinforces knowledge of subjects, and allows you to develop job skills to list on your resume. All tutor positions are paid positions that offer flexible hours and a friendly working environment. Training is provided. If you are friendly, approachable, and enjoy helping others, please apply for this rewarding experience.
College transcripts required along with at least one faculty recommendation.
Qualifications
Tutors must have an A or B in the subjects they tutor, and must have a faculty recommendation. They must be personable, approachable, confident and responsible. Tutors must complete an interview with the LARC Coordinator and/or Director.
Job Responsibilities
The LARC tutors are recommended by instructors for their expertise in one or more specific subjects. Since their knowledge would be useless without people skills, tutor applicants are also interviewed for those qualities and approved by both the LARC Coordinator and the LARC Director. All tutors must have received an A or B in the subjects they are required to tutor. Tutors are CRLA trained and certified. Tutors are required to adhere to Professional Behavioral standards.
Duties include:
  • Tutor in academic subject areas
  • Help organize group study sessions
  • Help lead short workshops, tours, informational visits
  • Assist students with computer questions, online programs, and navigating MyMacc
  • Complete tutor training and required tutor hours to become CRLA certified
  • Help students with study skills
  • Serve as student role models
  • Attend tutor meetings when applicable
  • Assist Coordinator/Director with special projects
  • Adhere to the policies and standards established by the LARC
  • Be prepared, present, and punctual for work
  • Maintain appropriate tutoring environment in the LARC
  • Keep the LARC neat/tidy, re-fill paper in printers, clean monitors/keyboards, assist with annual inventory
  • Follow shutdown procedures
  • Other duties as assigned

Additional Information
The LARC provides individual and group tutoring services to MACC students. Peer tutors facilitate the learning process by helping students understand and "learn-how-to-learn" course materials while taking responsibility for their own learning. Tutors may not do the work for the student and will use the Socratic Questioning method to lead students to self-understanding.
