I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.
That money would be better spent sending them to school to learn something useful.
You missed the low/no skill part, didn’t you? There is a need for those.
Or are you the kind of scum that believes we all need to “earn” a living. As if every being isn’t entitled to exist unless in servitude to the economy. Fuck right off.
… So you send them to school to learn a skill?
Or to mop the floor. There’s a low skill job that is actually necessary
The rest of the world proves there’s no need for people to pump your gas for you. Just about anyone can do that themselves. My point was that if this is the only way these people can be employed then we should instead take the money would they’d be paid for this and pay them to go to school instead so they can acquire the skills the need to get other jobs, whatever those jobs may be. Having them stand by a pump to put gas in people’s cars is just a waste of everyone’s time and resources. If this is somehow the only job they are capable of doing even with training available then just pay them to stay home. If there aren’t enough low skill jobs to go around this is a better solution then making up busy work for people to do.
There are necessary jobs that are low skill.
Are there enough to satisfy your ghoulish need to make sure everyone is working?
