Comments by "John Woodrow" (@johnwoodrow8769) on "'Go west young man!': six-figure salaries for brickies in WA" video.
Anyone who thinks 'blue collar' workers aren't as smart as 'white collar' workers has just demonstrated they themselves aren't actually very smart or worldly. Perhaps the biggest motivation for me to go back to University as a mature age student (after jobs as a motor mechanic, farmer, roof tiler) was spending a week in a ski lodge where there was a doctor staying. Had his porsche parked out front, obviously lots of money. Friendly enough bloke, used to talk to him most night around the fire. Actually overall, as dumb as dog-shit. Made me realize if this guy can do medicine, ANYONE can get through university. And they can.

I wouldn't think of laying bricks for a living for less than a 'six figure' salary ANYWHERE in Australia. Anyone who doesn't understand that comment has obviously zero experience of a manual job on a building site.
