About the Job
About the Job
The social worker represents the system — not evil, not malicious, but emotionally distant. He/She believes she’s doing the right thing and speaks in rehearsed comfort phrases meant to soothe, not necessarily to heal. He/She is kind, composed, and efficient. The performance should feel controlled and emotionally neutral, which makes the moment hit harder.
