Kirbys really aren't that great though. Better than the $200 vacuums at Wal Mart, but not better than any comparable Serious Vacuum Brand like Miele or Riccar. Sort of like how the stamped Cutco knives don't stand up to Serious Cutlery Brands in any meaningful way.

Someone in one of my classes shared what her job is. It's some kind of social work thing, working with sex trafficking. She has spent entire days doing interviews with a series of underage prostitutes and the johns who got caught with them. I bet a lot of those social work jobs are the most  ever.

Subvisual Haze posted:It's home health agencies. All the messy and awful parts of healthcare, with none of the upsides. Basically it's cleaning poo poo off the disabled and demented elderly who can take so little care of themselves that they have no business living anywhere outside a nursing home. Everyone in this country is terrified of being put "in a home" though, so they'd much rather waste away in squalor in their own home, enter HHA! The pay tends to be not great, the benefits are usually non-existent, and eventually you will permanently injure your back from lifting and moving around your clients at which point I guess you're put on permanent disability and get to pay for your own HHA? It's a self-perpetuating cycle of misery. Yep. I know a nursing student who was puzzled to see how competitive hospital jobs were in nursing, when the media has been ringing alarm bells about a shortage in nurses. Turns out the shortage is changing diapers in jobs like that, and the high status kind of jobs that nurses actually want are still super competitive.
