Skilled artisanal work is by definition not low paid menial work.<p>There&#x27;s nothing wrong with people doing low paid work.  Those of us who can&#x27;t stand it impose our values on others.  I worked a lot of manual labor while studying. I worked on mowing crews who spend their lives mowing the same pieces of grass over and over.  You&#x27;d think they hate it but they were happy to work a low stress, secure job and just do their hobbies in their off time, whether coaching kids or building model railways.  Of course that&#x27;s not everyone but it&#x27;s wrong to pretend we can walk in everyone&#x27;s shoes.
