Do you ever feel guilty about the money you make. Like blue collar jobs work 10x harder then i do and make a lot less while I work in my pjs and spend half my time on tik tok or doing mock fantasy football drafts

Blue collar jobs make good money depending on where you are. If you are in a union blue collar gig in a big city they can easily make 100K+ but yes they do work harder for sure. But they are eligible for overtime while salaried do not.

Eh idk. I know some blue collar worries in NYC who clear 150k+ due to being in a union. Or some civil servant job as well (FDNY, NYPD, DSNY, etc)

I don’t feel guilty at all. When I am working from home I can barely do anything other than work. I worked hard for my position and pay and I will never feel guilty for it. And those who work in blue collar make a ton of money as long as they also work hard and move up. My whole family and significant other are in trades and they work hard, just it is hard on their bodies also which is the only downside to a blue collar job in my eyes.

I feel guilty for people with professions that deal with people like teachers, nurses, social workers, doctors, etc. but blue collar people, not at all.

Yes. Grateful for what I have, but definitely feel guilty. Feels like I don’t deserve it sometimes.

Your lack of moral flexibility does not bode well for a partner packet🤔🤔🤔

But my lower back also hurts from working
