    Are we using the US version of blue collar? If so that usually means folks doing manual/maintenance labour that are not a part of the middle class.

      I think the definition is anyone who does manual labor that doesn’t require a college degree.

      A movie electrician can easily earn a six figure salary. Upper middle class.
