Like I heard some people judge women that work at Hooters as skanks. Even though, I know a lot of them that are working while attending college full-time. Or if an adult is working at McDonald's some people may call them lazy or stupid. Not knowing if its just a second job to help pay the bills.
That seems stupid to me, in itself.
I know a girl working at Hooters who makes a killing on tips. Her gift of physical attributes are applied correctly .. she can make more money in tips alone than an intellectual (ugly) person can at a career job. I should think that if a person judged a woman working at Hooters in such a fashion, then this is stemming from jealously because they aren't as beautiful and sexy.
Second, working at any fast food joint is hard frigging work ... on your feet all day (lazy is sitting at a desk, while your ass grows fatter) .. runnning, constantly stocking, making fries, multiple-tasking 20 things at one time ... and mainly, having to deal with the public, who can be nasty and impatient.
Funny how people view manual labor as lazy .. yet, they work their assess off and it's usually the people pushing pencils behind a desk who call them lazy.
A hard and honest days work deserves nothing except respect, no matter the industry. Furthermore .. maybe this makes them happy.
If your job was tiny in pay, and didn't require a lot of thought, yet, made you delighted with yourself and happy to wake up everyday and go to your job .... then how can this be viewed disdainfully?

"(lazy is sitting at a desk, while your ass grows fatter)"

Yep .. guilty smilesmile
As long as a person is a working tax payer I could care less. I actually prefer a man who has a "blue collar" job because I think they are more down to earth and family oriented. Having the salary of an investment banker would be nice, but I tend to feel that the higer up you are, the harder it is to relate to most "everyday, normal" people.

-Exactly! Their only viewed as lazy because they don't make as much money as white collar workers.
