I Really, Truly Despise

articles like this one which tout all of these "fastest-growing" jobs, the total of which are only a couple of hundred thousand positions in the next decade.

It's meaningless to write about the "fastest-growing" jobs when these jobs will be greatly outnumbered by the demand for nurses aides, clerical workers, janitors, food servers, and sales clerks. All these articles do is encourage people to flood schools to be trained for jobs that may not even exist when they graduate.

I think it is downright misleading and cruel to write such garbage.
