Well, blue collar labor kinda sucks.
I mean, to be honest about it. Your try telling kids who grew up sitting around on a cushy couch playing PS2s that they can earn an honest wage but they have to get hot sweaty and dirty to do it, or they can sit in an air conditioned office all day and surf the internet when the boss isn't looking and see which one they pick. My husband does blue collar work, most of my family did blue collar work--and it takes a lot out of you physically. I can't say I'd blame someone for choosing web surfing over dressing up in pounds of rubber in July heat, sweating like Anna Nicole Smith in a marathon, and then grabbing a live wire.
