Of course, I wouldn't want to live in that kind of world because I enjoy living in a world with (relatively) sufficient resources, working in a job that doesn't help solve world critical issues, and accepts my average intelligence.
Well, it's not like they're all geniuses. A lot of work has to be done, and there are only so many A-rankers.

And I wonder why the manager got his job? Did Sybil overestimate him, or did it just decide the job wasn't that critical and could be given to that asshole?
