Getting a degree in Gender Studies and Human Sexuality from Sarah Lawrence College is trashy

An honest job isn't trashy.
How you conduct yourself determines if you are trashy.

Someone that works their entire life as a brick mason? Trashy or not?
Hell no. I’ve met way more trashy pos’s in the legal field where I work. Give me a hard working dude any day of the week over some silver spoon over weight lawyer. My profession acts tough but they are the softest bitches out there.

frickers have the strongest forearms and best grip of any people I’ve met. Much respect for those that do an honest days work in a trade.

Masonry guys, fine cabinetry, and electricians are about the last true craftsmen left on the jobsite these days. I'll throw welders in there.

My brother in law is a bricklayer. He's an absolute monster of a man with the largest hands I've ever seen.

I will say I’m pleasantly surprised by the responses. My dad his dad all great uncles most brothers etc were brick masons. My father made a great living doing it for a hard but honest days work. He would be watt to busy to someone’s exterior but people would wait fir months to have something custom like a detailed fireplace or mailbox to be done by him. He took so much pride in his work. As a kid just riding around in Lake Charles he would point all of the city that he had built. I worked doing it from the time I was a little kid stacking bricks but never wanted to learn because I was scared I would be t”trapped” in the trade worked as a laborer for years through high school and through college. Really wish I had learned the trade. It’s a noble and honest one

No. Skilled craftsmanship is an underrated skill these days. Way less trashy than a social media influencer imo.

I can watch videos of the guys that are awesome all day long on Youtube. Some of the work is phenomenal.

I have a friend who's built a very successful and profitable business from perfecting his trade. Those contracts are big money when you start building on the industrial side.

Yeah it is and you can hire cobs that are fast for commercial and insdustrial

Jerry Rice's father was a brick mason.

Any legal and legitimate blue collar career path is not trashy outside of the sex industry. I think most injury lawyers have trashy occupations, but they make more money that I do, so Catch 22. Your life outside of work is what truly determines if you are trashy.

People are trashy.... Not professions.
I know some trashy executives.
Masonry is one of the most admired and scarce trades around. Besides the obvious physical demands, the artistry is amazing and it leaves a tangible product that will likely outlive the Craftsman (unlike most paper pushing jobs).

Put it this way. You find a good brick mason, you have found gold. I can ride around Lake Charles and point out some pretty terrible brick work post-Laura with my untrained eye.
This seems like another trade where if you’re good, you can take custom jobs only and be very selective about your clientele. Just about on par with a custom cabinet maker.

An honest job doesn’t make you trashy. The way you act does.
