Isn’t social work government related ? So the government is making people work for FREE just get a degree that then isn’t even going to pay a livable wage ANYWAYS

Social work graduate here, I rejected a placement because they expected me to drive in my own fuel 45 mins away for meeting purposes. I’m was not a paid worker and should’ve been shadowing someone
