“All work is honorable.”
True and under appreciated. But some work is completely useless make work. The best example I can think of is the state New Jersey not allowing customers to pump their own gas like ordinary people do in the other 49 states. An absurd and useless job.
there is something in the white privilege charge, I concluded today. The problem with globalism and exporting “hard” jobs is that the kids who grow up now expect that they don’t need to learn any real skills because they will simply be in charge of everything. But the less privileged folks who had to go out and learn to do real things now have skills and experience that makes them more qualified to run things than the so-called privileged folks who just grew up with the expectation that they would be running everything.
Those who perished digging the Hawksnest Tunnel would be amused.
