Even the "good ones" love it, because it makes them feel good, stroking their egos for "saving" you from your troubles by "giving" you this job you need so badly.
So-and-so was a single mother *and* a single father, barely able to make ends meet, and we'll do anything we can to help people in need like that, by allowing them to work for us! Nothing like that bum who just wanted to get paid to work.
