@finesilver @Julie Fascinating how, if we rewind the clock a few decades, how many of those "tireless" professions that are "more than a job but a calling" would be ones performed by women. I can't help but wonder if, given the relationship of caring professions to women, and especially to women in religious service (consider how many nurses were also nuns), if they have perhaps been shafted as those roles became purely jobs.
Really, no work should be mythologized.
