I find it curious that people generally applaud Costco for paying good wages to their workers yet don't extend that consideration to those who build the stores.

Is it latent classism? Disdain for tradespeople? Is outsourcing bad when it comes for office jobs, but good when it shaves a few percent off of the final $/ft2?
- WrongAssumption 2y agoI’m struggling to think of a form of classism that ranks retail workers over trades people. Can you elaborate?
- Arrath 2y agoJust anecdotes or vibes, having been on both sides of that one. I'd call it more of an "indoor" vs "outdoor" work dichotomy, honestly.
