why does career tag exist?

Question

similar question: http://meta.serverfault.com/questions/1666/eliminate-the-career-tag

I have been searching serverfault, security.stackexchange, programmers.stackexchange, workplace.stackexchange for the past week for career questions, but none of these site accept career questions in the faq.

I have asked several questions already, which have been closed.

• https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/31215/what-are-the-more-physical-job-classes
• https://security.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1165/which-site-to-locate-career-question
• https://workplace.stackexchange.com/questions/9819/physically-demanding-job-classes-in-information-technology

I finally found a useful answer at What are some IT jobs where you don't sit at a desk for 8-10hrs a day? but that was also closed.

So if career questions aren't acceptable on any of these stackexchange sites

1. why does the career even exist?
2. why not a site where career questions can be asked?
3. if you sum all the career questions across sites, how many are there?

Answer 1

1. Because people who have the privilege created it before we decided that career questions are really Not Constructive and we haven't gotten round to tidying it up. Thanks for bringing it to our attention again.
2. If you really want one go to Area 51.
3. >49.
