Almost every white collar job I can think of has large portions of its workforce twisted into contributing to some fucked up aspect of the capitalist machine.

i do not know what the larger percentages are in general, but 8% of my old financial sector job's former clients^1^ are convicted^2^ sex criminals. and the worst ones we had, my boss gave to me. that's a really fun one to look back on.

^1^doctors, lawyers, engineers, programmers, etc. professionals. the practice targeted white collar, not blue collar

^2^convicted like, recently. after i left the practice and my boss retired. i can believe my boss did not know

we dealt with fewer sex criminals at the homelessness program. both as percentages and discrete counts. and the financial practice was not that big i need to have words with my boss if we run into each other again because how the fuck.
