Undermining by superiors, a lack of respect from those one is trying to serve and being forced to wear several hats ( counselors, child abuse watchdogs, documentation in triplet of every move made, trying to be “ pals “ with people when your job is to protect or educate, etc. ) has them running for the exits. Maybe by design to get more “ progressive “ people in line with the government into those professions?
