these guys (and they're often guys) aren't picturing themselves changing bedpans or buffing floors or washing dishes, they need to retain the fantasy that they earned it

Kai Ryssdal once said on Twt that if every poor person disappeared from the earth, nobody would notice for a month, seemingly failing to realize that poor people are the ones doing things like cleaning bedpans in hospitals and washing dishes in restaurants. He'd be dead of cholera in a week.
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

Presumably he means that people who now have office jobs will soon be emptying bedpans because ChatGPT took their current jobs.

My undergraduate students are almost all working class, in the sense that neither they nor their parents possess assets or professional credentials (at least as far as the US is concerned) and live by selling their labor power. They drive taxis, sit behind cash registers, push mops, empty bedpans.

These cretins still think that all nurses do is change sheets and empty bedpans. They have no clue about the level of technical expertise and training needed to be a nurse these days.

Medicaid is the primary payer for 63% of nursing home residents. That's your mom, dad, grandma and grandpa.
So when the Senate Republicans cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid this weekend, think: are YOU going to be paying those nursing home bills, or are you going to be changing dad's bedpans?

Makes me wonder: How much of the anger that we're seeing among young men (and particularly young White men) is driven by their horror at the idea of having to take a job that requires changing other people's bedpans?
The job market was already dependent on health care for most of its growth, but the pattern is even more dramatic after today's revisions. Private-sector employment would have fallen outright last year if it weren't for health care. #NumbersDay

we obscure ourselves from these things at our peril. we look at the greater mass of young women tutoring shitty little boys, cooking shitty ragout for rich bastards, scrubbing shit out of deep pile carpets, washing out bedpans, etc, and we separate these from our own time in ignorance
