To be frank, until we reach a point of complete automation (which is a whole other can of worms), jobs like that are explicitly necessary in the world everyone wants to live in, with convenient access to pretty much anything they could want (though obviously at a reasonable wage). Whether that world is worth those jobs isn’t a question I think I could do justice addressing, but it’s certainly one society needs to determine an answer for.
Technology is so advanced that all basic needs are met with ease, and money no longer matters. Then jobs change from something you do to not die, to something you do because you want to.

So basically Star Trek.
