bull-dog butt check

I often think about those people who live their lives in service to others. I see their point of view well as the alternative is to live solely for oneself. This selfishness is not of god and therefore any deviation from a service oriented way of life is unthinkable. This choice is not without its pitfalls however as there are high levels of addiction on both sides of the fence.
To live in some comfort at least, one must earn enough money to feed the bulldog, or habit, or something or other. A service oriented job will go nowhere without the necessary investment in time, education, and good old American money. A service oriented job will not pay for the bulldogs annual ass check; in order to move up in a service oriented job that can pay for extras like bulldog butt-checks, one needs to have at least a Phd in bullshit or know somebody or both. Otherwise, it is only through education that one can be of service to other people. Then, some years from today, those who lived a life of service can reflect back on all the shit they missed while being paid pickity poop.
What kind of social world places a minimum on people oriented positions, especially those who take care of the aged and/or physically or mentally challenged?
One reason for low wages and routinized care is the corporate world where free golf comes before anything else. Let's face it, if your a corporate executive, do you really care about anything else other than your own pocketbook? The rest is just paper and directives. Meanwhile, real people struggle to take care of their bulldogs.
