Some will say that an white collar employee is more mentally drained out hence they deserve better pay but people who do menial job stop working the world will just rot as everything cannot be done but robots and AI.
even more so with the fact that some people out there just got that simple minded thinking, that are detached from reality where the fact that they are living leisurely, is thanks to these blue collar worker that did the dirty job for them, they should be respectful with these people because without them they surely are the one that gonna be doing the dirty job moreover, the fact that they mostly got underpaid should be a problem aside from the disrespect that they got but nah some people think its their privilege to disrespect those worker, but I do agree that its more of societal problem.
I think these blue collar worker deserve a raise tbh.
Aligned, but guess what's more alarming? People are saying that people get paid based on the business and revenue they bring and thus justify white collar jobs getting paid more than blue collar and at the same time they are worried as well that if the blue collar will get paid in par with white collar then the white collar will get demotivated and some are saying if they get paid in par with white collar and if they decide doing blue collar jobs then what will happen who will do their jobs.
This just shows our sick mentality we are saying they don't deserve pay scale which white collar gets and at the same time we are worried who will do their job if they earn more and quit. This is the real problem we have already classified then as downtrodden which is the harsh reality.
People need to change their mindset and everyone deserve pay as per their efforts and hardwork.
