It's probably more between this and emergency services cleaning up after messy accidents & train suicides.

You may go in understanding that this is what the job entails and assuming that you'll get correct training on how to cope with it, because it's not like many people go out of their way to watch this shit before applying for these jobs, but when your bum hits that seat and you're served up shift after shift of the worst the internet can dredge up..

Yeah, you may not be cut out for this, it may also affect you in ways you didn't contemplate when you signed up for it. If FB didn't have adequate training or proper support during the job then it needs to be looked at
