You're just a number

No one gives a crap about you. You're just a number, a tick in a box - so they'd say they have done their responsibilities, or even better, they get something in return, some sort of funding, for example.

If your kid is ill and can not go to school, they call you in and ask what seems to be the problem, like they care. They don't give a shite about the wellbeing of your kid. On the contrary, all they care is the fact that your kid must attend every single day - and they will make you - so that they can achieve good attendance rate; so that they can get funding.

You see your doctor because you are feeling down. He types whatever types about you on his computer system pretending to be listening to you and puts you on anti depressants and a few sleeping tablets. He doesn't give a damn about your wellbeing, he gets rid of you in the quickest possible way. In ten minutes you receive a treatment that you disagree with, but he achieves his target, ticks the box; he sorted you out in his target time.
