minus-squareVanth@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13arrow-down1·1 month agoBlue collar and skilled aren’t mutually exclusive terms. It’s skilled or unskilled (takes advanced training or not) And blue collar or white collar (manual labor or office/desk work) E.g., a welder is both skilled and blue collar
