A blue collar is the result of basic laziness.

a decision not to be educated produces a blue collar

Thats a really condescending statement.

It MAY be true in some cases. Some kids have no idea what to do out of high school. College is the last place they should be until they figure what they want to do. They really need to work before they go to college.

However many blue collar types make the decision to get into the trades. Its a great way to go and a great future.

Huh? The laziest people I know are all college educated. And they often have an aggravating way of being simpering p#$$ies, too.

are you saying that lazy = blue collar, but trades workers are not necessarily blue collar?

Because if you think trades workers are lazy you’re thinking is lazy in the extreme. I grant there are some who are, just like there are some white collar workers who are lazy. But trades work is physically demanding and if you progress into the careers it becomes mentally demanding too. Especially when you have some career paths that are interdisciplinary. HVAC is challenging- electrical, plumbing, soldering, welding, brazing, combustion theory, thermodynamics, vacuum, pneumatic controls, freon\ammonia refrigeration, computers, etc.

Lot of knowledge required to excel- so your uneducated comment is just showing your ignorance.

Wow Bert. Are you sure you know the term Blue Collar actually means?

A bit more than ditch digging laborer to say the least. I’ve been both.

The trades vary in STEM but most of those trades/blue collar jobs require certs and college level classroom and lab time. Welding for instance is a job requiring a high degree of applied science and technology.
