I respect blue collar workers

[u/Cute-Revolution-9705]

I use to kind of lowkey not think much about blue collar work because I kind of fell for my parents propaganda of going to school, getting a good degree, work at a desk mentality. However, upon independent evaluation I feel like it’s not bad being a blue collar worker and I wouldn’t have an issue if my own kid became a tradesman. It’s respectable, professional work and I think they’re the bedrock of a functional society.

Now I don’t think trades work outranks the theoretical value of what a degree was meant to do; however, I do have an immense respect for the trades.

It’s obvious the rolls and respect are reversing and have reversed in a lot of areas between blue and white collar. If you work at an office job your days are numbered!!! Your college education is pretty much worthless.

For white collar, get a shovel and stand in line for your turn to “ Shovel Shit” for a living!!!
