I would love for them to last one shift as a CNA or even shadowing a CNA. They would be terrified using a Hoyer. Showering a resident or cleaning up after a dose of Lactulose? HA!
There will be lots of jobs picking fruits and vegetables and working on farms.Then there are those coal mining and slaughterhouse jobs for real men. Not a desk or computer in sight.
For real. A few days on a memory care floor, changing underthings and helping patients in showers, would certainly weed out bros with no empathy from those who have some left.
I think the plan for the future is that the good white collar jobs will once again go only to white folks via the good ole boys system. Then they will lord over the rest of everyone else working in the factory. It's likely a miscalculation on their part.
Two dozen Roofers are needed ASAP in Bellingham Wa, thanks to ICE.
I've done that job as a younger man, and it can be brutal.
Lost one friend and nearly another in separate falls.
I was once a soldier and now I have one of those 'email' jobs. I know which one I prefer.....the whole job shaming thing is also super problematic. No one is defined by their job.
In addition to job shaming, poverty shaming is just as bad. It’s very elitist and snobby and uncaring to hear liberals making fun of people who live in trailers or are otherwise in poverty.
Ok the point of this is that there are large numbers of existing physically intensive jobs that they don’t consider physical labor but your thing is cool too I guess. Enjoy your hammer.
I think OP's is a criticism of the concept of "unskilled labor." Many Americans--especially on the right--do not believe "unskilled" workers deserve a living wage. I would argue if McDonald's could replace "burger flippers" with robots and be cost-competitive with humans, they would have already.
That isn't a 'real men' job because it has 'care' in the name.
Call it 'pre-corpse wrangling', 'herding crumblies', or 'critical system management'; require a uniform with a cool hat; issue them specialist tools on a utility belt; presto-chango, now it's a 'real men' job! Utility belt and hat, 100%.

That job is too damn hard.
Pay needs a 200% or greater bump for all the folks doing that work.
Maybe.
