I see this a lot. People turn their noses down at cleaners, bus drivers and any manual labourers and think their not smart enough or don't know about basic computer or literary skills, not really having a clear idea as to why their doing the job their doing. Even in some cultures if your not a Doctor, Lawyer or an Accountant they don't see anything else as a financially secure career. But what occupation is financially secure?

If I only had bad jobs, it's hard to get a good job with this kind of discrimination, even if I could do any job. Many times people with good jobs couldn't handle the hard bad jobs. Oops, I just discriminated against those overpaid desk jockeys.

I don't see this one that much, except for the distaste for those who work at a McJob and are looked down upon for doing it. Hey, you've gotta give them some credit, at least they're trying to earn a living, and not just laying back expecting someone else to give them a free ride. I can see that some people might discriminate against those who hold jobs in industries which go against their moral standards (like pornography, the tobacco industry, or even the military if they're anti-war, etc.), and it's just not a good reason to dislike someone that you don't even know based on that. But, as far as how it rates against issues like racism and religious intolerance, this is not as big of an issue.

Nice one GoneAway. The only job Chauncey could hold on a newspaper, given the writing ability he shows here, is emptying garbage cans and sweeping the floor.
