Construction workers and fork lift ops make waaaaay more than baristas and mixologists.
And yet are still less respected by the owner class, because they get dirty.
For me it's because they block three lanes of traffic on a four lane, and when I drive by at 10mph on a 65mph watching 3 workers watching 1 doing work I die a little inside. And it goes on for weeks or months. And I'm both annoyed and jealous.
