Rating of unacceptable professions. The most unprestigious male professions in the USSR
As sociological surveys of five to ten years ago show, the ratings of professions have changed. What was previously considered non-prestigious, today already acts on an equal footing with generally accepted prestigious specialties.
What is the prestige of this or that profession? According to the applicants themselves - in the absence of specialized education for those who work in these positions.
Freelancer
Working in free mode, even five years ago, was considered something of an idleness. General condemnation was unavoidable. And today, many young people seek to work in a free regime, even if it is hired labor.
Courier
There is a significant difference between the perception of some professions in the 2000s and today. The courier was considered something like an errand man. Now this is an opportunity to honestly earn money, additional income for young people who are not used to sitting idly by.
Businessman
The one who bought up fifteen years ago bore the stigma of a speculator. Today, most of the small and medium-sized businesses are built on this. But for some reason, no one considers this occupation something shameful. On the contrary, everyone sees profitability, they strive to find their own niche and grab their piece of profit.
Salesman
Sales consultant - today this profession, although not on the honorary list, but the attitude towards it has changed significantly. This is a person who strives to be realized, starting from the lowest levels, he moves up the career ladder quite quickly.
Service staff
Cleaning lady - yesterday and today, these are also completely different categories of people. A portrait of a typical representative of this profession ten years ago looked something like this: a dirty, torn dressing gown, galoshes, slippers, a scarf on her head and a tin bucket in her hands. Today, the status of the cleaning lady has changed markedly. There was respect for the hard physical labor that she performs. Special education is still not required here, but knowledge and skills are still necessary. Today, cleaning companies use new methods of cleaning surfaces, modern equipment greatly facilitates manual labor. The cleaner needs to know and understand what and where to apply, mix in order to achieve maximum efficiency in her work.
What is really embarrassing is not working when you are healthy, full of energy and continue to philosophize on the couch. It's time to act and look for a job with GorodRabot.ru!

To the question of who you want to become, we are used to answering from childhood. And what would the Russians never do, even if they are promised a lot of money? Portal research center commissioned by Vedomosti
The survey involved 8300 respondents - representatives of 19 professions: accountants, sales managers, lawyers, engineers, sales consultants, economists, executives, secretaries, office managers, account managers, personnel managers, storekeepers, programmers, teachers / teachers, doctors, designers, security guards, foremen, technologists.
A curious pattern emerged: very often people categorically reject a profession that is essentially adjacent to their own or do not want to become like those with whom they work side by side on a daily basis. It seems that professional jealousy, personal ambitions (including unfulfilled ones) and other subjective psychological factors often affected the results of the survey. Therefore, the slogan “all professions are needed, all professions are important”, of course, remains in force. It is more about professional prejudice and hostility between workers in different fields.
Least of all in Russia people want to work as sellers. One in ten (10%) respondents said this. Since the 90s, the time of the "shuttle trade" and the revival of the free market, selling is one of the easiest ways to work. The positions of sellers, sales managers, trade consultants have not left the first lines of the demand ratings from employers for more than one year, and today the ratio of supply and demand for these positions on the site is only 2 resumes per . And since it’s often easy to fill a “salesperson” job, it’s not uncommon for people to cheat on their favorite but poorly paid job for a salary and a percentage of sales. Few manage to achieve success in this area and make a career, and for every “sales genius” there are many who think that they have betrayed a dream and feel annoyed.
Another 8% of Russians, apparently, have fresh in their memory the threats of their parents “if you don’t study, you will become a cleaner!” 5% also applies to the craft of a janitor. 8% of respondents indicated that the most unacceptable for them is the sphere of intimate services (the percentage is small, but it’s not a matter of a decline in morals: many people didn’t even think of this option, and they simply didn’t remember about it). 4% of Russians would not agree to become a doctor, a killer or a waiter for any money. Among the unpopular professions that gained 1-2% are a teacher, a conductor, a policeman, a loader, a stripper, a security guard, a bank debt collector, a funeral service worker, a pathologist, a vacuum cleaner, a secretary, a manager, a driver, a worker, etc. 27% of respondents in called any other work as unacceptable for themselves. And only every twentieth said that he had no prejudices in the professional sphere.
It is curious that HR managers and programmers (16% each) or accountants (10%) would like to engage in sales less than others. 15% of office managers would abruptly turn down an offer to become a cleaner. 13% of secretaries consider even a hint of sexual services offensive to themselves. Every tenth security guard and salesman would not go to the janitors for anything. Security guards, as well as engineers, would not like to work as policemen more than others. Doctors are disgusted by the profession of a pathologist, and HR managers are disgusted by work in a ritual service. A lawyer will not agree to be a collector, and a programmer will not become an operator in a call center. However, IT-specialists would also not want to work in the criminal business, to be loaders, collectors or strippers, just like construction superintendents - sewers. But for a leader, any profession is usually acceptable - except, perhaps, service in the police (on average, 2% would not go to law enforcement agencies, and 5% among executives).
Less than others would like to become doctors accountants and designers (6% each). And the doctors themselves, even if they were offered to become president, would have refused with the same categoricalness (4%). And they would not have become drivers either (3%).
The motives for which people would not become doctors are quite humane: "the price of a mistake is too high." Otherwise, Russians are deterred by hard physical labor, disrespect on the part of colleagues, and poor working conditions. Our fellow citizens do not want to come into conflict with the law - even for the biggest money. Many honestly admit that they would not have enough knowledge for a particular profession, which means that there is no need to even try - “only disgrace”. However, the Russians said, “if there is no money, you will go to work in any profession”, “hunger is not an aunt.”

Some comments from respondents:
"Sales/Trade/Seller"
“It’s not morally acceptable for me to sell cigarettes. And in general, to sell any nonsense that no one needs, which everyone has already eaten, drunk, applied and played enough. It sounds pathetic, but to sell: chips, chewing gum, cola, cigarettes, glamorous rubbish, endless clothes of the same type, gold, bank robbery products, endless cell phones, something that is already being sold by 1 million similar as two drops of companies - this does not cause any pride and no satisfaction ...
