I get the usage as a dig at do nothing office jobs, but what are these jobs really? I’ve never worked in an office or known anyone who did well enough to ask.

So what are these jobs actually like? How do they exist in the first place? Could I lie my way into getting one lol?

My boss is also my project manager, most of what she does is function as a sort of go between for us (the people on the ground actually providing the service) and the customer. That involves sitting in meetings with the customer higher ups to keep them in the loop on how things are going, bringing any issues that are preventing us from getting something done to them to make a decision on, figuring out the logistics of how something is going to get done, things like that.

Basically she deals with the people bullshit so all I have to do is go out and fix the problems.
