If someone wanted a "white collar" job with a "white collar" company "behind a desk," they could probably do well in school and work hard and get scholarships or take out loans... just like my boyfriend did. He grew up in an area where there "weren't a lot of opportunities" (with a terrible family and no family support) and he didn't wait for any opportunities to come to his door... he worked hard and did it himself. Companies don't go searching for people in remote areas, but people from remote areas can certainly go searching for good companies. Being proactive always helps.
Didn't I just say that I'm grateful to people who do jobs that involve physical labor? It sure isn't my strong point, so I'm glad that someone can do it well! Why are you getting so defensive about having a physical job?
Also, I'm not from a city... I think that people are assuming that I am.
Is it really worth it to get so worked up about some offhand comments that someone you don't even know made on a forum over the INTERNET? I wouldn't worry about it so much. There's probably plenty of more important things for you to worry about than a stranger's offhand comment, right? I hope so.
Alright, everyone, going to bed for now! But I'll probably see some of you around relatively soon (even though my participation on here in a little sporadic).
