Dude. We're definitely not plumbers.
It takes years to become a plumber. Plumbers have to hold a high school diploma, enter a trade program, begin an apprenticeship that can take up to five years to complete (required to be able to work as a plumber), pass a state exam and become licensed, and join a trade association. They have to follow codes and standards, and often work with other trades like architects putting together blueprints. Plumbers are business people, too; they have to get clients, keep up with them, get paid, and survive on their reputation. And for all that, they make on average $57k a year in the US.
We're artisan primadonnas who get paid three times that of a plumber, with literally no requirements to do so. There are people working at online banks who haven't completed high school.
