Part-Time Hospice Chaplaincy Job is Peak Labor Exploitation

This hospice chaplaincy job in Pittsburgh requires applicants to have an advanced degree and experience, and expects them to take on a heavy full-time workload (including uncompensated work travel) and have on-call night and weekend availability, but offers them only part-time pay with no benefits and no guarantee of a future salary and benefits. I posted this in r/chaplain and was shocked to discover that some chaplains feel that this employment situation is acceptable (ostensibly because it is normal). It seems like they've been gaslit into thinking this acceptable and they're trying to convince me it is. They simply won't be deprogrammed. I'm not crazy, though, right? This is clearly exploitative, right?
