Are people actually still talking trash about tradesmen? Come on, what year is it supposed to be?

Year is irrelevant, as long as class exists (working, owning, and ~~middle~~ deluded worker, aka "temporarily embarrassed millionaires"), so will classism.

Yea well... Tell that to the Indians. Tradesmen are looked down upon quite a lot here (cuz they also tend to be poor and of the lower castes).

I didn't know people were talking trash about them. When I was a kid my parents warned me to do skooll gud so that I could get a cushy office job instead of a low paying back breaking job, not that those professions are shameful or anything like that.

But I think there’s still that implication that those jobs are for less intelligent people and that they’re less desirable.
