Indeed, we all moan about the strikes and the "32 hour weeks for
sitting on your arse", but how many 6-figure city slickers would have
the same balls to do what comes naturally to these men and women?


I don't know. But why pick "6-figure city slickers" as opposed
to 15k office or retail workers in your example? Does it make
your comparision work better?


Perhaps because it's some of the "6-figure city slickers" who
think they're more important than everyone else.


Maybe that's true. But do they make up the majority of the
peoiple moaning about strikes and the "32 hour weeks for
sitting on your arse"?
