Pursuing Pointlessness

Many who work in 'the caring professions'
give their reasons for choice of occupation
as having little to do with money.

Given how poorly such work often pays,
the low status of the work,
and how tiring can be, this is to be expected.

One very popular reason among care workers
is 'to make a real difference in one person's life'.
Whilst the pursuit of individual difference
is common enough how often is it achieved?
What happens when it isn't? Do they go around
supporting a highly indifferent 'normality'?
