Worked in oil and gas, we dealt with spreadsheets. One coworker had a tumor that looked like a neck pillow. He couldn't stop working because healthcare in the US requires you to have a job.

Trades pay a lot to look like tough guys and trades sell that tough guy image to sell the job for less than it's worth.
