@RadicalCartoons @Ziltoidia @macha You're not wrong there.
When society tells kids that some jobs are beneath them, we have a recipe for disaster. Unfortunately it's everywhere. I've met teachers who think that wiping a desk or washing up their own coffee mugs is a job for the little people. The arrogance.
All jobs should be seen as opportunities, as a starting block. If more people did the *menial* jobs, especially public-facing roles, there might be a greater appreciation of people in general. After all, if there were no clean wards, no laundry, no emptying of bedpans etc, all the diversity officers in the world would have sod all to be in charge of. Perhaps them they might have to roll up their sleeves, don a pair of marigolds, and do some actual work.
