By making it it well and entertaining.

There are entire YouTube channels dedicated to it. Septic sucking is a function of capital costs not labor costs.

Why's there a need to? If it's highly unpleasant and there's a shortage of people willing to do it then surely it's a perfect opportunity for the development of self-cleaning tanks... As it is most of the truly unpleasant jobs of previous centuries don't exist anymore - if someone had found a way to make gong farming pleasant (look it up!) then flushing toilets and town sewerage systems might never have been invented...

By paying enough

Pay more. Design the tank and the equipment so it's not a dirty job. All doable if you are willing to spend some money.

Cheaper to hire a felon or immigrant. I'm not saying I agree with this arrangement.

Around here, the septic tank cleaners tend to be owner-operators. They own their tank truck and cleaning business, and they make decent money.
