This is a good thread. My favorite part is below. Related to that, I have never in my life been as productive as when I had a personal assistant. I got 3-4x more done. Now, white collar jobs are mostly clerical/bureaucratic work because it “saves money.” Really, it doesn’t, but you can make your little Excel spreadsheets look like it does.

We’ve all been relegated to things the secretary pool used to do. And there’s nothing at all wrong with being a secretary! But it also doesn’t make sense that we’ve all become one so the MBAs can pretend to save money to get their bonuses.
