[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think that OP is talking about dating a 1/1000 person who owns a business that employs blue collar workers and makes over $100K.  Blue collar means blue collar work, with a normal blue collar income.

All this talk about how some blue collar workers earn as much if not more than white collar professionals and therefore are "worthy" is pretty messed up, IMO.  It's as though their high income makes up for the failure in the job prestige Olympics.

No it means that stupid people look down on blue collar workers but some people end up with a pretty nice lifestyle from that blue collar job.  I have to laugh when people turn their noses up at tradespeople, if only people knew how much money they are making.  Not all but a lot of them.

Why is it that only the white collar jobs are worthy of respect for the money they make.  Or is it that some people get a little jealous when they are putting in 14 hour days and some tradie doing electrical work finishing at 5pm is making just as much money.  One is tied to the corporate chain the other not so much, they tend to make their own work and hours.[/quote]
