@RadicalCartoons @Ziltoidia @macha The idea of the *mucky jobs nobody wants to do* is the interesting one.
Why do people not want these jobs? I wonder if they were better paid and (just as importantly) better valued, they might have more takers.
We now live in a society that *values* the credentialed rather than the competent. We have oodles of *managerial* layers in the NHS who contribute very little, but take the lions share of the dosh.
I would rather have competent health care staff and support staff (who do the mucky bits) than any number of climate change/diversity teams.
