I have another impression about romanticizing trades: there's a deep anti-intellectualism and an exaltation of not having to think. For me that idea is pure hell.
You think people in trades don't think at work? This is actually just classism or something idk. You really don't think electricians, contractors, plumbers etc aren't problem solving on the daily? We're not talking about working on a factory line.
General problem solving, probably. Deep thinking? Nah.
And besides, I doubt most electricians need to apply Kirchhoff's Law on a daily basis.
Right because IT workers are philosophizing through setting up networks okay
Who said anything about networks?
