Now it's like "Burger King. Part time at Tesco. Works nights in a care home"... and then a year later they're doing something entirely unrelated, or maybe DO start a "real" career path but that's never listed.

It's junk data basically, they might as well remove the field entirely.

I don't think it is junk data though, particularly from a historical view point, just think when you great great grandkids are looking you up
