blue collar workers


was just sittin here wondering how many people here at audiogon are blue collar workers.

just curious as to how many people work with their hands that enjoy the same hobby as me.

i myself run a 25 to 30 man construction crew in michigan & all the other hifi nuts i know are not blue collar people.

I have no idea what kind of a collar i have.

Actually, im not even wearing a collar. Normally i go to work in Blue Jeans and a T-shirt.

I work as a telecommunications tech for one of the few surviving smaller telco's that has not been bought by SBC or QWEST.

SO.. whatever that makes me, i certainly dont earn money like a white collar worker, but i AM chained to my cubical 9 hours a day.

I hate my job, but i love the paychecks. One of these days im gonna get out of this life and work for myself.

I've been considering starting up an AV consulting/ installation business. Im pretty handy with tools and have done alot of cable installation back when i was younger. The onyl problem would be making the transistion from doing it part-time to full time. I guess if i feel like im turning down ALOT of jobs then it would be time.

Hats off to everyone who has a career they enjoy, regardless to the pay it brings in!
