Legal argle-bargle, neat phrase. In the past two years I’ve started to watch a lot of CNN and Fox News (I try to get a balanced diet, but that’s another topic). It’s always amazing to me how American ads for prescription drugs end (legal argle-bargle).
Yes, Caulfield, things have changed drastically in the last hundred years. But discrimination based on attitudes concerning which jobs contribute most to the economy, not so much.
I think Caufield may need to shift his view of labor. While I may enjoy engineering design, I would still consider it work, particularly on those days when I am in the office for over 10 hours. I’d be surprised if the bankers, their number crunchers and those who work in legal offices don’t feel the same way.

It has more to do with unions than it does with the actual nature of the work, although it is my position that unions are obsolete. Companies no longer have the power they once had over employees, thanks to the Internet, and there really aren’t all that many advances in labor relations that have not already been made.

Sorry Caulfield, but computers will never transport food from farms to stores or make the things you buy on Amazon.

Yup…I was born on Labor Day…..one of my father’s favorite jokes. My mom wasn’t terribly amused.
