Are these really the people that should be required to work so much? Isn’t their job about handling life and death daily? Wouldn’t we want exactly these people to come fully rested to work every single day and be fully staffed?

I don’t know if there are jobs with similar stakes that are so carelessly staffed and disgustingly paid.

    What are you talking about? I live in Europe and this is standard. I know midwives, nurses, and doctors and they have the worst work schedules. I think in France health workers can even be prohibited from striking. The government declared it an “essential” job and when there aren’t enough workers, striking isn’t allowed. THey are always understaffed, so they aren’t allowed to strike. GReat eh?

      En France vous avez des lois qui limitent le maximum des heures travaillés par semaine. Oui dans des cas éxtraordinaire c’est possible de les ignorer, mais c’est une grande difference en comparaison avec les états-unis, où ils travaillent pendant 24h sans pause comme c’est une chôse normal
