Some professions get a lot of hate, but it stops the moment people need their help. Others, however, can't seem to shake their bad reputation.
Reddit user Spektakles882 asked the internet which jobs are universally disliked for all the good reasons, and the answers came fast.
Due to fake appearances, exploitative tendencies, a lack of added value, or other factors, many careers were nailed to the shaming board, with questions about whether society would be worse off without them altogether.

TikTok moms who shove the camera in their kids faces every day for views. I especially hate when they indoctrinate the kids from such an early age, that the kid doesn’t even realize it’s abnormal.

Even the more innocent ones just feel so gross. Kids should be able to just live their lives.

However, the survey revealed there's a broader global distrust in the government. For example, government ministers are also among the least trusted (only 20% say they are trustworthy), and only 28% of respondents trust civil servants.

That being said, politicians have some rivals for the least trustworthy title.

Only 15% of Ipsos respondents say they trust social media influencers (a category that was also frequently mentioned in this Reddit discussion).

Influencers. Have met a few in the wild and behind closed doors, with friends, exes, partners, etc they are atrocious. And many have caused irreparable damage to the values of society all to gain more followers, views, money, etc. Seen a few that travel around making money off of tragedies like storms, m*****s, kidnappings, etc like some tragedy pimps. Can go from posting how sympathetic they are about a death of some person and how they "knew" (they don't) them. Then ten seconds later post a thirst trap.

Resellers/scalpers.

I have a friend who started doing this and it’s just disgusting. They have discords and s**t to try and collude to buy up new stuff to boost the price. They raid stores for kids toys like Pokémon cards. When my buddy tells me about how he spent all day going to TJMaxx, Burlington, Ross, Target, and Walmart to buy toys I’m kinda disgusted lol.

pasmasq:

Scalpers of any kind. Whether it's pokemon cards, concert tickets, or whatever. If your entire shtick is creating artificial scarcity just to drive up the price, you're a d****e.

CEOs of any company doing more than a few million in business per year. Maybe more like 100 million plus. But at a certain point, they become a net negative on society. They take far more than they provide.
