Since people in New Jersey aren't allowed to pump their own gas, they should also have to call someone to drive to their house and plug in their electric vehicle for them every time they have to charge.
It would make a similar amount of sense.
So they could have just been paid to do anything else instead and they would have been happier and probably more productive to society.
Get them stuck in a shitty job instead of giving them the opportunity to go to school to find a better job
There's plenty of jobs like that that are actually useful though, I would much rather see more people sorting through what people send to be recycled than seeing people get paid to pump gas in a V8 SUV.
I'm talking about jobs that they already have a hard time finding enough people to do it, so no, pumping gas isn't a necessary job.
Right, because for some reason the only thing Russ is able to do is to take a nozzle, put it in a car and pump gas, ALL and I mean ALL other jobs in existence are impossible for him to do.

Yeah, I'm sure electric pluggers would also create lots of jobs.
