Agree with this. I find it bizarre that people seem to shit talk actual work so much.

In my circles, it used to be that people considered office work a "cushy job". It was clearly recognised as being out of the ordinary and special.

Now it's like it's flipped and somehow anything that actually does anything real is for the proles.

I barely know anyone that can even like, build a crappy basic table. That would make me really disappointed in myself. It's like everyone is trapped in a fake virtual economy pretending it all matters.
