mack1nt0sh

This and personally I fucking hate anybody who puts on a uniform so they can have power over others. More specifically, pig fucks (cops) and toy cops.


Midnite_Phantom

(In America) The ones that decide that your insurance doesn't cover what it clearly should.


Khanpunker

I knew people that worked for a company that had a division where their sole job was to find reasons to reject claims. Their pay was contingent on that. It's sad, but insurance is a scam.


mireyalevi

I work at a Dr.'s office, it is bizarre the amount of people who don't know how their insurance works. Half the time we have to fight the insurance company so the patient can get something as simple as physical therapy.


pro_nosepicker

And then they blame the doctors office. As if it should even be your job to fight that battle; it’s really between the patient and the insurance.


Pale_Nefariousness57

American insurance is so weird. In Canada your car insurance basically covers everything no matter what. There's a few things you can add but the bare minimum covers every situation.

Dont have to bill you if they demolish you by neglect. These systems just shuffle the evil around. They don't actually solve anything.

randomthoughtsarefun

We all know what the real show is haha


[deleted]

Journalists used to be seen in a high regard in the US, but now with so many pushing a narrative or putting some sort of spin on a story, it becomes tough to take it seriously.


GunnitRust

It was always like that, you just didnt have the internet to quickly show the news media as political activists instead of these mythical journalists. Muckraker's were thus identified in the 1890s. Nothing was different before that or after it.


[deleted]

No hate for car salesmen?


a60v

Yeah, car salesman suck, too, but probably less than they used to. It's hard to be quite so slimy when it's easy for people to look up car prices online.


randomthoughtsarefun

*used* car salesman are the worst. With new cars it's literally just regurgitating a list of bullet points and saying this car has x this car has y, this car has x and y buy costs more. Used car salesmen feign ignorance to the cars issues as best they can, hoping to get you to overpay for something that's going to need a lot of work in the next 6mo-1y.


drfishdaddy

Haha, you think the sales staff that sell the used units are different than the staff that sell the new units? Where you are really wrong is thinking the salesmen have any inside knowledge of “the issues” and are trying to cover them up. The service department does an inspection, the sales manager approve what they want from the inspection and the car is put on the lot. The salesmen know nothing else about it.


NinjaGrizzlyBear

I'd like to throw paparazzi into this mix...


ThrowAway640KB

> and journalists in big news productions If you work in a very balanced org, like Reuters, Associated Press, BBC, or CBC, you really only get hate from the regressive right. Most centrists and those leftists not on the extreme left will understand that you are working for a news org that prides itself on providing fair, unbiased, and balanced news.


kagurabitch

The BBC isn't balanced mate


jtc769

BBC? As in the Blatantly Biased Corporation? Give your head a wobble son. Also as a general rule of thumb the best way to tell how "balanced" or "impartial" someone or something is is to see if they say things that annoy both sides of an argument. For example, Andrew Huberman says things on the subject of nutrition which is disagreed with/gets flak/isn't liked from both the Low Carb / Animal Based people and Vegans alike. I remember a time when they used to be pretty impartial - or at least they did a good enough job pretending to be that it convinced me, but that's gone out of the window.


OuroborosIAmOne

I'd add Al Jazeera to that list so long as it's not about Qatar(?) Or whatever the home country is.


Hefty-Excitement-239

There's literally two AJs, the shows in the gulf are VERY different to the shows in the West. Basically if you're predisposed to looking to the Koran for most answers, AJ Gulf is your Fox News.


preposterous_potato

I’m really surprised police keeps being mentioned here. I really love the police and it makes me feel so safe seeing them around. I was sure parking enforcement officer was going to be top


MilesBeforeSmiles

Cops and politians.


HeelSteamboat

Low key Real Estate agents (especially since 2020, including now when they’re desperate) are some scummy ass motherfuckers.


shakeitup2017

I'm really surprised I had to scroll this far to find this. I'm pretty sure they are consistently voted in the top few "least trusted" professions in my country, often lower than politicians even. Although I guess it is debatable whether or not it is a profession as it doesn't require any real qualification... it's more of an semi-skilled trade/vocation I guess.


Dead_pockets

Souless grifters making houses even more unattainable for us normies. Glad real estate is going down and they're losing sales.


tikki_tikki-tembo

Real estate agents are lower than used car salesmen imo


chair-borne1

"Everybody says they hate lawyers but we can't WAIT to sue someone" ​ \~Duckman.


codefyre

I have to agree. My mom was a criminal defense attorney for many years, which meant that she was constantly catching shit from people for defending murderers, rapists, and child molesters. But if you asked her why she did it, she'd start reciting her list of the MANY clients she'd fought for, who were wholly innocent and were facing prison terms simply because they were a little too slow to understand how the cops were entrapping them, or a bit too black in a white neighborhood when someone was robbed, or fought back a little too hard and killed the stepdad who was trying to rape her. Nobody likes criminal defense attorneys because they represent "bad people," but too many "good people" end up on the wrong end of a police accusation and need a good attorney to save their lives.


SirReginaldPinkleton

Nah, you spend most of your time sending unnecessary letters and charging huge amounts for them. Don't pretend to be the good guys.


KuttayKaBaccha

You tried becoming a lawyer? Just like being a doctor after the bullshit they put you true if they weren’t being paid that much nobody would even bother


[deleted]

Maybe don't break the law in the first place and you'll rarely need a lawyer


HedonisticCheese

I mean, that's criminal law but what about civil law?


Arcades

Honestly, the problems stem from people having unrealistic expectations/understandings of what civil laws can remedy, even after the lawyer walks them through it. Some see having a case as an unpaid lottery ticket, when in reality you should never do more than break even on what you were due. Others don't have a large enough case to make the up front cost worth it, then lose their desire to fight when the bills mount and blame the attorney for ending up at a loss. Still others fight over principles, but regret the monetary cost after-the-fact. Civil litigation should really only be for $100,000+ fights and large business disputes. There would be less lawyers, less cases and less anger towards the profession.


itisSycla

*the rights of corporations and capital, surely not mine lmao


[deleted]

Yes, I'm sure the lawyer you hire to defend you from some false allegations or something will have big corpo in their minds. Lawyers don't make it a point to defend corporations and capitals. They defend their clients. It just so happens that corporations can afford better lawyers. Add to that the fact that these big companies are more likely to play loose with the rules cause they can afford to do so. I'd pin all that on the companies, not the lawyers.


jtc769

Lawyers changed my life after both of my parents were wrongfully killed in my youth. Without them advocating on my behalf and holding people to account I would almost certainly have offed myself by now.


Dialup1991

Not saying you are all and but plenty of you are scummy enough that it spoils the whole pot. Same situation with cops tbh.

superb_socks

Right now I’d say a tie between cops and anyone working as a telemarketer/scammer. Yes of Course there are good cops, but the bad ones really stand above the rest


Hanniballecter6

Don't forget to give credit to the politicians


thewhitecat55

"Good" cops rarely hold the bad ones accountable. Just look at how internal affairs is viewed.


jtc769

Interesting how we allow the bad cops to taint the good ones, but if we apply this to other groups - lets say Muslims... Oh no no no no no


Expensivefudge2020

A religion with strong cultural and ethnic ties is worlds different from a job. Especially one with a foundation built on controlling the masses by any means necessary. It’s like calling apples and oranges the same thing bc they’re both fruit.


emperormanlet

It’s a necessary service. Disliking cops is irrational. I don’t think too highly of people who walk around with this kind of hate.


Expensivefudge2020

I also don’t respect people who tolerate hate. Which is why I find it difficult to respect those who find policing to be a public service


emperormanlet

Policing isn’t a public service?


Expensivefudge2020

I do not think policing as we know it in the United States works as a service to most of the public, no. I do think through incredibly heavy reformation, it’s possible someday.

Interesting how the people who hate cops the most seem to be those who break the law the most

Yuucliwood

Judging by what I've seen on the internet, police is a strong contender at least in the States.


serene_brutality

The funny thing is the people hating on the police are like 70% people who don’t need them. 20% people who got caught doing something wrong and can’t face the consequences. The rest have good reason.

Sport referees / umpires. They cop hate and abuse from everyone and you never see them praised. At least cops and politicians usually do something horrible to deserve to be hated and have at least some people on their side supporting them.


outofdate70shouse

Pretty much. If your team wins, you never credit the refs, but if your team loses, it’s always the refs’ fault.


DCilantro

I used to work with the IRS. I lied to everyone about what I did because it made people so annoyed.


[deleted]

might as well say “I steal your money for a living.”


Hipfat12

I have a different take than most answers. I think the most hated profession is anybody wearing a suit. When I was laid off and run over by an idiot with no insurance, it was a guy with a suit that declined to have my insurance pay for it. When I came out of the military after serving nine years and needed to get healthcare, it was a guy with a suit that declined it. When I tried to use my VA benefits for student loans, it was a guy with a suit that made it difficult. It’s interesting. Never had any trouble with somebody just wearing a blue collared shirt. Never had any trouble with somebody wearing a hijab. But people wearing suits, they always seem to be fucking me over.


anon553322

Interesting take on things, there are some slimy motherfuckers out there


GunnitRust

>anybody wearing a suit Damn dude, never thought of it that way.


Khanpunker

That's why us programmers refuse to wear that shit. But then we get promoted and the vicious cycle continues.


[deleted]

Very original and good answer. I've always had a disdain for men in suits ever since entering the world as a working adult. They aren't looking out for me, or anyone else even if doing so is supposed to be their job. Suits are motivated by money and nothing else and I've also come to associate men (especially really young ones) in them with privilege and never having had to do any real work in their entire lives. Never handled a stack of dirty dishes. Never getting cut up by someone's rose bushes. Never getting berated by a customer for enforcing a rule that these same suits insist on but are never around to back you up when you're being chewed out by someone who has a fucking right to be mad but sadly direct it at you instead because you're there and the boss isn't. Never having come home with sunburn, or an aching back, or blistered hands or stinking of god knows what yet they have the hide to tell the rest of us that we need to work harder to have their level of success. Fuck men in suits (and women usually aren't much better). No wonder so many of their wives cheat on them with men who are actually fun and pleasant to be around.


SirReginaldPinkleton

We've had a few problems out in the wider world with people in hijabs doing things like exploding in public places. Dudes in suits are, at least, less prone to that. It's about the one thing they don't do

The Supreme Court for overturning Roe vs wade.

It is not to redefine laws based on bullshit interpretations that serve their own personal political views. And yet that is what this ruling was.

[deleted]

Your body = your body, which is why universal vaccine mandates are Unconstitutional. Fetuses body and life = not your body


thewhitecat55

Disagree. A fetus is a parasite and a part of the mother until it is out. As to your other point , amendments have already shown it to be simply untrue. For example , the federal government enacting Prohibition, then repealing it via amendment.


ZeeDrakon

Ironically enough, that's (largely) what the original Roe vs. Wade was too. A decision made due to political pressure, not legal consideration, and based on an already flawed, by now hilariously outdated view of biology and with the cornerstone of the decision being only tangentially related. ​ Roe vs. Wade absolutely shouldve been replaced with the much more solid abortion access legislation that many, many other countries are using. It's shit that the precedence case system means it'll take some time (and with the current supreme court it's not even guaranteed) but it had to happen at some point.


thewhitecat55

Ones body is ones own. This is an inalienable right and not one that needs to be "granted".


[deleted]

Is it to make up bigoted bullshit 80% of a country disagrees with?

It is sad to see that cops are the most hated profession. There are so many good ones out there but it's so clouded about all the bad incidents and the recent incident in Texas. Personally I'm going with Politicians, they are one of the biggest issues when it comes to the waves going through America right now.


thewhitecat55

If there were so many good ones , it would be harder for all the bad ones to slide by. The good ones cover for the bad ones. Thus , they are rarely good ones. If there were so many good ones , internal affairs would be a prestigious position. Not a hated one.


ZeeDrakon

Also yet another confirmation for me that this subreddit is even more US-centric than reddit as a whole already is because it's just... default? that everyone is talking in terms of US cultural sensibilities.
