It’s like the trades. People shat on those jobs and looked to cushy office jobs. Now trade workers are in demand and no one wants to do it. They’re all jobs that keep society running.

I’m getting pretty sick of people blaming the jobs themselves. I firmly believe that’s another one of capitalism’s psyops to convince us we’re lazy and selfish for not wanting to put up with its bullshit anymore.
I actually love my job itself, even the butt-wiping. Tbh the butt wiping has actually been one of the better parts of my job, because I get to help someone who is uncomfortable and unable to do anything about it get comfortable again.
It’s the capitalist influence that’s consistently rotting the heart and soul out of everything, not the actual work of connecting with and caring for other humans. I think the propaganda has gotten good at making us forget that.
