YESTERDAY MORNING I WAS WONDERING HOW some people can do particular jobs. Everyone needs to work, obviously, but what causes some to select jobs that seem, well, not on most folk’s list. I had gone into a local lab to get blood drawn for my doctor. The women that do this work (and I’ve yet to meet a male doing it) are called phlebotomists. What they spend their days doing is poking needles into people’s arms to fill up little vials of blood for testing. I can’t imagine! Unfortunately, I’ve had plenty of exposure to these people and some of them are not too good at their job. I’ve had them jab me three, four times before they got the task done. Then there are dental hygienists, who fill up a work day poking around in the mouths of strangers. Morgue staff is another one. Who wants to do that? “Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it,” said Stephen Hawking. That sounds so uplifting, but in the above examples, I’m having trouble matching it up. If certain kinds of jobs draw certain kinds of people, what does that say about the doctor who chooses to be a coroner and perform autopsies? I saw a doctor whose last name was Stork shilling on a TV ad for some joint medication. Why isn’t he an obstetrician?
