The interviewer interprets David Graeber's argument about bullshit jobs as suggesting that jobs may have an ineffable or inscrutable sociological function that people do not understand.

“that seems plausible to me. But for some reason, my intuition is it would become degenerate in some way. You know, I think David David Graber, even though he said bullshit jobs,”

“I think what he meant was there was an ineffable or kind of inscrutable component to jobs that we don't understand some kind of sociological function or something like that.”
