One job that absolutely needs to get paid more is caretakers for the elderly and daycare workers

[Formerly Black Trash]

also EMTs

U can’t trust nobody to give a fukk about shyt for $12 an hour

That’s why most of these ppl watching the elderly don’t give a shyt
I’ve seen it with the ppl watching my grandmother

Also the shyt EMTs are responsible for and what their pay is in return is insane

As a nurse who works in long-term care, I agree.

Nursing homes were not built to house just old people. They were created to take care of the indigent, the childless widows, the mentally unstable, etc.

People have had to stick their loved ones in homes because they cannot afford to stay at home and take care of their loved ones. It's not a coincidence a rise in nursing home admissions was also around the time wages started stagnating.

But you know how white people play.

Hell yeah we need more. It's crazy too because sometimes we be they family more than actual family.

And people who work at group homes for developmentally disabled children and adults. My father does that (children's residence) and it sounds like a terrible job. The place constantly smells like piss and shyt, kids are always making noise, and he gets attacked all the time and can't do anything about it. The oldest residents are fully grown.

It didn't seem as bad when my dad was working adult homes because those dudes were institutionalized (as fukked up as that is) and acclimated to society better.
