In my previous articles, I have often asked what makes a “profession” or “occupation” perceived as superior or inferior to another. The awareness of such an issue is important in determining whether or not our actions are congruent with who we want to be.
In our society, work has taken on a much more significant role than it was initially intended. Rather than simply working for money, we have begun to identify with our job. We take personal satisfaction in holding particular occupations, and at times feel superior to others who are in occupations that are regarded as non-skilled or blue collar.
