Sounds like work, which kind of defeats the purpose here.

The topic is pointless jobs. Not pointless paychecks.
So get a job at a badly run company. Find a huge multinational which works in a wide variety of fields and apply for a job in a department without clear deliverables. Send lots of emails, attend lots of meetings, be friendly to everybody and always look busy. If anybody asks, you're mostly working on a vaguely defined internal project being run out of the Singapore office at the moment.
