Spanish friends - can anyone help me with something that has been bugging me for too long.

David Graeber's brilliant "Bullshit Jobs", in Spanish, is titled "Trabajos de mierda" which (I think) literally translates as "shit jobs".

BUT - for me this isn't the same thing! A shit job is one that a person hates. A bullshit job is a meaningless, pointless position that may have been created for bureaucratical reasons.

Am I wrong?? Or taking this too literally? 🤔🤔 🤔
