In Canada at least, any contractor/constructing job.
Plumbers, electricians are educated specialists making very very good hourly wage but won't get same status as say IT manager.
Bonded cleaner with great references can easily be 50 bucks an hour.
Truck drivers, forklift operators have steadily been well compensated and need certified skillset but again don't get same perceived class status.
Note I'm not saying I don't / these jobs shouldn't have respect :). Question was which well paid jobs are seen as different conferring class status despite good pay and this is the general perception I've observed.

That's not amazing. Construction is also notorious for ruining your body (health problems / early retirement a necessity) so it's not even as good as a 66k CAD office wage.
