99% of jobs consist of pen-pushing.

The term 'pen-pushing' may be going out of usage. So brushing up it's meaning before starting.

Pen-pushing means the banal paper-work, clerical type work.

99% of jobs involve a considerable amount of pen-pushing.

Be it the profession of mechanical engineering, be it information technology, be it civil engineering, be it medical, be it surgery, be it espionage in intelligence organization, be it acting in films, be it television, be it literature, be it military, be it sports, be it research in science and mathematics, be it trade and commerce, be it merchant shipping, be it politics, be it civic and administration, be it teaching, be it detective work, be it law-enforcement, be it counter-insurgency, be it theater, be it music, be it artistry, be it dentistry, be it tailoring, be it fashion designing, be it cooking, be it culinary, be it outer space research, be it driving public transport like buses, taxis and auto-rickshaws, be it portering, pen-pushing is there in everything. However riveting, interesting and glamourous the job may seem, pen-pushing is there in everything.

It is not that pen-pushing is unnecessary or useless but pen-pushing is there in everything. Don't be deceived by attractive perceptions.

The only profession in which pen-pushing is less is that of prostitution and allied fields like pornography, etcetera.

agree. the style have changed after introduction of new technologies bit basically still every thing is same.
we use computers now but basically we use to do the same on paper and now computers are so common that we don't realize that it was actually a paperwork, we are saving in soft copy form.

So, teaching and blue collar physical labour is pen pushing as well, hmm

what do teacher do on white board.
only those teachers who take their jobs do granted and don't prepare the lectures don't write something on papers.
or the most important part which is checking and marking of papers and assignments don't include pen pushing.

And don't forget attendance records. In some universities/colleges, attendance is so important that students are ineligible for higher semester if their attendance is insufficient.
