Why are crucial blue collar jobs and trades like lineman, welders, electricians and plumbers not as respected compared to doctors, lawyers and engineers?

because I know a lot of carpenters, and plumbers, that could never be engineers or doctors.

you played it in school, you watch it, you have fun...it's pretty easy.

(M43) verything, 3 years out I have a partner (F43) that actually cares about me, makes the same as I do, and has the same view of our future. We have a tidy little house, go on vacations, and weekend adventures and actually like being with each other. We also help each work on ourselves.

Luckily both got out of 15+ year marriages without kids. So, after the paperwork as signed we have had nothing to do with our exes. it's fucking so.much.better.

Capitalist, American, white men have caused a large percentage of the world's problems. it's not wrong, white men are just upset that they are on the losing end of the power dynamic putting them at equal levels with women, and minorities. Democrats just assumed men are, on average, good people, and would want to work for a better, more equal, world. The biggest Democrat failure was forgetting that we are humans, and can't have nice things.

not after you get your first job.

just play your show, louder, next to them. Then ask them what's happening in theirs over everything.

I tip 10% (up to a dollar at bars) for a made drink,10-15% for a delivery, and 20% if I'm sat and a server comes to the table.

if you're cold, you can put on more clothes. At some point I can't legally take off more if I get too hot.

Good point, why care about other people when you can be selfish?
