https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period Do Americans Respect and Value all Types of work and workers? en-us 2018-04-25 15:38:34 UTC 2026-03-05 16:05:14 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padletuploads.blob.core.windows.net/aws/17011152/7abe847b4fb85cd7e68c16f3d4e84b7c/Dirty_Jobs.jpg https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255365795 Americans in generally do not equally respect and value all types of work in our society, and they often ascribe higher values to jobs that are higher paying or requiring higher education. Some jobs such as garbage collector or janitor are often looked down upon as undesirable jobs, and many people do not respect the workers that perform these tasks. We often think that unskilled jobs deserve less respect, but they still contribute meaningfully to society through their hard effort. Work is an important aspect of human dignity because it demonstrates our contribution to others through society. ]]> 2018-04-25 17:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255365795 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255365961 Americans do not value all work as we are quick to devalue blue collar jobs and prefer white collar jobs. Americans have been preached that going to college and working in companies are better than civil work. But Americans do not realize that if there is no blue worker then our society will never be able to function.]]> 2018-04-25 17:48:52 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255365961 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366099 No, Americans think some jobs are less desirable than others, and therefore do not respect and value every job equally. Many people prefer not to work certain jobs and do not respect those jobs.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366099 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366105 I don’t believe that Americans respect and value all types of work and workers because people are able to profit from cheap labor. People also value a job based on how much you make and how you earn your wage. ]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366105 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366109 Americans do not respect or value all types of work despite all vocations contribute to society in one way or another. I think this is because Americans measure the value work based on how much learning is required to achieve said job.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:12 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366109 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366133 The dignity of work is an important aspect of our society that is often overlooked in favor of education or salary. I don’t believe there is a war of work since skill-based jobs are still necessary for a functioning society, but as do believe that people in lower level blue-collar jobs are not acknowledged as much as people in white collar jobs even though their work is just as important. College education is
still important in our society, but equal emphasis should be placed on skill-based jobs.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366133 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366173 No, many Americans look down upon workers who are believed to have bad jobs. They believe that educated people wouldn’t have jobs that are viewed as “lower” than others. This both brings down the quality of the jobs, and a stereotype of people down.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366173 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366200 We do not value all work equally in the United States because we overlook and take so many jobs for granted just because they are considered unskilled or don’t need a college education. I don’t think this is morally right because overlooked jobs are still just as important as anything else.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366200 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366212 Americans do not value work and we are quick to make judgements and assumptions about certain jobs. We do not respect lower paying jobs or jobs that aren’t appealing to us. Even though haven’t these jobs can teach us valuable lessons in life, people don’t want to work hard and want to make easy money.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:25 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366212 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366230 Americans tend to unfairly value some jobs over others. There is so much pressure placed on American youth and the expectation of a college education. Some people think that skilled work is less worthy, but as a society, we need these skilled workers in order to function and progress. Every job is integral in our society and economy.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366230 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366242 Americans definitely do not value all types of work equally because society currently associates higher education and degrees with success. We must hold respect for all jobs regardless of their pay or type of work because every job has some sort of value towards the overall well-being of the community.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:28 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366242 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366328 American do no to respect all types of work because they will think of those people that’s do labor as a lesser person. Everyone thinks that they failed and now they have to actually do hard work to make money. The only thing is that those people will probably do more work then any of those people that look down at them. The labor jobs should actually be getting paid more the money all the lazy people that sit at a desk and do little to nothing. America needs to treat those that actually give effort to help the world, as equals and not as just a labor worker.]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366328 laurenkiachian https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366418 Many Americans look down to people that work in certain situation or have certain jobs that are thought of as "lower".

Since many immigrants who migrate to America usually start doing humble jobs, people have not only look down on the jobs, but they look down on the people and believe that those two correlate. Racism plays into our respect and value towards certain jobs. ]]> 2018-04-25 17:49:57 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366496 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366560 Americans do not respect and value all types of work because they see many jobs as being beneath them.

I feel that this isn’t partly due to the fact that Americans aren’t aware of work ethic. This is apparent in food restaurants, where certain are gourmet and high paying, while others have foods that are Just as hard to make, but less expensive.]]> 2018-04-25 17:50:38 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366816 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366822 No, because Americans don’t value hardworking jobs as much as others]]> 2018-04-25 17:50:38 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366822 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366841 I feel that not everyone respects every type of job out there in America. People who are fortunate enough to have good paying and low stress jobs mostly do not appreciate the dirty work. Since they cannot put them in other people’s shoes, they do not respect them as they should and deserve to be respected.]]> 2018-04-25 17:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366841 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366926 Americans do not value all work equality in the work place.

This pay gap is already wide enough, and it is getting wider in the years to come. The workers who have menial jobs put in a lot of strenuous work to keep our society intact, yet they do not receive the respect they truly deserve. The concept of work greatly needs to be reformed.]]> 2018-04-25 17:50:58 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255366990 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255367084 Americans do not respect all tripe of work and When kids are little they ream big, wanting to be famous or an astronaut. Most people don’t grow up wanting to do a job that doesnt seem glamorous. People look down on those who do the more physically difficult jobs like plumber or mechanic, but there are a ton of jobs in that field. Americans especially the young adults going into the work force should look at the more manual labor jobs.]]> 2018-04-25 17:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255367084 https://padlet.com/patrickdaniels/3Period/wish/255367106 Americans do not respect all types of workers. There isn’t generally a hierarchy, with celebrities at the top, followed by those working in major industries such as technology.
