minus-squareCileTheSane@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up7·6 months ago Car Salesmen are useless for me. “These professions perform a similar function and I think they’re useless. That makes this worthwhile” is certainly an interesting take. It sounds like you agree that obtaining free furniture and selling it for money is just as parasitic as a Car Salesman or Real Estate Agent. Of course presumably the Car Salesman or Retail Agent also brings some expertise to the situation that is not needed for flipping furniture.
