Question: Why is being a file clerk bad? 

Answer: Who said it is bad?? It depends on the person.. some people like that sort of work others don't.. The only drawbacks are that the pay is limited.. If that is not an issue and you love your job.. Who cares what others think.. They are a much needed and used profession.. :)
