As a programmer myself for 2 years, I did blue collar work for 5 years. I hate the corporate world. It's sucking the soul out of me. The money pays well but holy cow, my soul is fading away.
im in my 2nd year of residency as a doctor and I already feel drained out
We are like a robot in corporate world 😢 everything looks fake
agree
blue or white, it is still a collar, and we know who wear collar, LOL.
Haha yes, I been working IT for 7 years, one more year and im done forever, at some point i started getting jealous of cashiers and cleaners
Asian culture is heavily skewed towards academic credentialism & white collar jobs leading to over-supply of college graduates & wage stagnation. These young men deserves a round of applaud for their hard work in whatever they do. Money is money as long as it’s not stealing! Asian employment practices will change with the attitude shift towards blue collar job. Well done!
I live in UK and believe me, it is better to push them down that line see your kids OnlyFans content on the Internet.
In the Philippines farmers are look down by people. I was 27 when I quit my job in the city and came back to my hometown and I was shock I was told by my relatives and friends that I wasted my degree and work experience if I'm gonna end up farming. 😂
Agree
wrong
@@valarmorghulis8139 no future for farmers, many governments around the world, don't care about it
No work is ever too small...
White or blue collar job, what matters the most is it brings them joy
there aint no joy working like a dog
yes, as long as it covers living cost
no work gives you joy but money. for actors maybe
@@tednguyen7258if the money is good and there are plenty room for self development, it’s all worth it
Ecclesiastes 5:18
Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.
Blue collar work can sometimes even make you physically stronger and your body more able because it keeps you active. White collar makes you have sedentary lifestyle, weakening your body. White collar work can also impact you psychologically because it can be quite dull and boring. Blue collar work can also sometimes keep your personality more grounded and down to earth. You are not eaten up by greed or work politics.
i agree, and it also pays bettet than many low-end office job.
I agree regarding politics, well said.
depends, blue collar can also give you joint injury if it's too hard
I have eczema because of blue collar jobs 😢
@@luxraider5384 some can expose you to harmful chemicals too. There are hazardous blue collar jobs as well.
"We get along each other at work. " That's important
These jobs have less mental stress
But more financial stress...
Do you even watch the video? The wage difference is only 0.4, and he even admitted that the blue-collar job pays more than the white-collar job.
@@Stella-c8j No one wants to do these jobs nowadays so the demand is high like US and Europe. There should be more than decent pay.
@@Stella-c8j yes, I heard that but it is not the case everywhere. I am talking in general. In most cases, you earn more doing white collar job. I am an immigrant somewhere. For many years I did cleaning jobs and factory jobs but I left to further my education. I am about to finnish my PhD in two weeks. When I was doing factory jobs, my salary was 12 euros or slightly less. I left that job 5 years ago, my friends there still earn less than 13 euros but I make over 20 euros now as an advanced PhD student working on a research project at a university. If I get an assistant professor job, I will make more than that and if I get job in industry, I will make more than 20 euros per hour.
@@mylifeisinhishandsamen4167Nope, in civilized countries, people could survive on a minimum wage job. Plus basic necessities are quite affordable in China.
Also 9-9-6 is insane. Once the house is clean he can go home and be free
you get what you sowed
Cleaners can get paid a lot especially if the customers are rich. This also applies to house cleaners in the US. It gives more profit if you own the business. Also college campus cleaners get benefits as well; some universities offer free tuition to their children if they pass the entrance exam. Hence why you sometimes see old janitors still working, they get retirement benefits as well. Cleaners are one of those jobs that is surprisingly not too bad to work in. it’s physically demanding but not as much as construction or warehouse jobs.
Don’t be silly. Once the house is clean, he has to go to the next one.
9 9 6 is just over blown by western media reporting, most jobs are regular 8 - 5 or 9 - 6. it is not widely practiced. Just the tech companies like alibaba, tencent etc, even tho those jobs are very demanding yet the most very brilliant graduates fight for those jobs. Why? because of very high pay, so a lot of people line up, getting into tech companies is also very good for your resume in the future, it's like working for apple or google in US.
No when you're done with working you can clean your own house I've been there done that..
As a former Sr. Software Engr. and Game Developer, I can totally relate to this.
I'm now a farmer and garden supplies contractor after 15+ years in I.T. Also, I transitioned from a sickly dude to a muscular old man. Totally worth it 💪😎
I hope that you can teach a lot of people with that experience..
The thing is, you probably survived for many years with the savings you got from working as Senior SE.
Starting and staying in a blue collar job only is entirely different
@@johnmaco I actually started WITHOUT any savings. I started the whole thing from scratch.
Frankly, I only make 20% of what I used to earn as a Sr. SE now. It was my near death experience with covid that made me realize how stupid it was to chase after a career in exchange for health.
If you think about it, most people climb the corporate ladder not because they need it, but because of the social "status" they're chasing.
A lot of my colleagues have now died from either diabetes complications or cancer. So, there it is.
@@CasimiroBukayo Good to know you are putting health as a priority.
Yeah bruh. You deserve happiness!
Honestly, I wasn't focusing on the video or what he was saying. I was focusing on a beautiful person.
Same
same
Everyone does😂😂
@@nitinnegi4986 😂😂😂
I'm with you.
Ngl, many white collar jobs are "bullshit jobs". It pays well but oftentimes people take things into another level where they put pressure over unnecessary things. People tends to overcomplicate things, making it more stressful than they should be. For instance, adding more administrative requirements to report your progress. Like detailed time tracking and repetitive compliance checkings.
Exactly. I had an office job where they put so much importance on the appearance of the worksheet that was insane. Every single line must be perfect. I rather care about the data. Unnecessary stress and focusing so much on small, meaningless things just sucks the soul out of you.
🤮
Honestly, with the AI advancing and replacing a lot of white collar jobs, blue collar jobs is the future. Instead of going to a university to learn concept and waste money, I always tell people to go to trade school instead and get actual hands on experience that prepares you for the work after you graduate. We need more people such as carpenters, plumbers, construction worker, electrician, aircraft mechanic, etc., as those jobs are hard to be replaced by AI.
Do you know why high quality sushi knifes are very expensive? Because they're hand crafted from start to finish by a person. You can't replace that kind of skills with AI because the skills are passed down from generations to generations, and it's through years of practice and sweat standing next to a forge with a hammer.
Really? I am curious, but what about those humanoid robots?
@@JayeshPolkar As of right now, AI doesn't have the hands-on skills with adaptability to replace blue collar jobs. They might reduce some of the tedious work such as wrapping 1000 boxes the same way via repetition, but I'm talking about blue collar jobs such as carpenters, aviation mechanic, etc., because those require hands-on skills with adaptability.
For example, there's a famous dish called Peking Ducks from Beijing that has been passed down for hundreds of years. The process of raising the ducks in specific way, feeding them, checking on their health, to the process of butchering them, cleaning them, roasting them, seasoning them, etc. all varies depending on the size of the duck, how long it's been alive and so on. AI is not going to be able to replicate that kind of task.
Then let's say you have a customer that's having a bad mood that day. AI is not going to be able to read the room atmosphere of that person and change their routine to adjust to that one customer. After working in a restaurant before, you're always going to run into people with a temper. How you handle that situation require adaptability, because humans have emotions and it changes on a daily basis and it's unpredictable.
This is an interesting take. I’d love to learn more as someone in their early 20s
I kept saying this!!!
eeh, wrong. If humans are capable of creating "actual" AI (which we don't have right now) that replace every single white-collar job, we'll also have robots that can replace blue-collar jobs. Trust me on that. XD We had pretty good robots before ChatGPT was even born.
For those that just can’t believe this video: some people rather break their backs than break their minds.
if done properly, no one will break backs and will be physically active, cant say the same for IT
@@lets_see_777it’s not literal.
Idk man working at an office job myself and sitting at desk all day also hurts back
@@comicgeniousfan 🤣 I can’t disagree with that
A healthy society should treat both blue and white collar well, and reduce classism. this is good for china. These cleaners are setting very professional standard and approach the task with innovation science and strategy mindset, that's very respectable.
I think these young men have made the right choice.
I am a uni graduate with a degree in language teaching and over 8 years of experience working as a content specialist. The nature of corporate work almost sucked the soul out of me.
I'll soon start training to become a plumber - it's gonna take me 3 years until I can take the exams and become a certified plumber.
I'm switching to blue collar work because the money is at least 4 times more than what a white collar job would afford me. I also plan to use my plumbing knowledge to renovate my own properties' plumbing.
The future of work and making good money are in hard, honest jobs. Office jobs are dead - automation and AI will leave most laptop workers unemployed in the next decade, perhaps sooner.
For your 3 years of training to become a plumber, what are you going to survive on?
Plumbers get on the job training.
@@jet-xr2zjTraining is paid
I agree, they are making a good choice. There's an over supply of highly technical labor in China, but because of that, it become a lowered supply of blue collar jobs. This means, based on economics, blue collar jobs become worth more.
Its the same thing that happened in the US. Office workers get paid less than high skilled blue collar jobs. Some times, they even make less than low skilled blue collar jobs.
- (3 - Years) - (Apprenticeship) - is - (A - Paid) - (Position) - 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 - (Have - You) - (Not - Heard) - of - (Apprenticeship) ???? - 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 - (This) - was - (How) - (Japan) - 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 🇯🇵 - & - (
Thats a good sign when people swiching to blue collars jobs, trades jobs should be respected and professionalized with competitable income to encourage youngster to join. It takes time to change people's perceptions on these jobs, or else the job market structure is unsustainable
Exactly. A country can't survive without people doing these jobs, and it's a job where people earn honest money to put on the table.
They're so necessary tho
He can be a model.
You thirsty charbor. Modelling pays so little.
He'd be competing against millions
If he did white collar desk jobs he would probably loose his model look and physique within a year or two. 😊
He is too handsome, just look at his smile😉😁
His looks will fade as a blue collar worker. White collar workers tend to age better.
the best thing about this is how happy he looks when he talks about the job. In Asia we all live within a race of getting higher education and a more privileged job than other people, people often judge each other based on what they do for a living, so it must take a lot of courage for people with university degree to take up a blue-collar job, not because they are forced to do it but because they want to do it. This mindset should become more popular in the new era, everyone should feel happy with what they do, as long as it is not an illegal path.
Start a blue collar business- cleaning, plumbing, repairing, stone masonry, etc. Being a tradesman is something to be proud of! And I love how happy Zhang’s face is! 😊
To start your own business is not easy as well. Rather than working 9-9-6 with uni degree in china I would team up and switch to blue collar as well. The truth is that we overproduce university graduated. Good for them that they've found their path, and do not lie flat :)
Being your own boss is much better than 9-9-6. In China's work environment, I think the stress with BYOB is probably less than working a full time job in a black company. And you probably will make the same amount of money as the 996 job.
996 is at least 72 hours a week. But maybe when you are BYOB, it would be around the 60 average, decreasing as the business gets better.
Mean while, if the company you are in gets better, instead of getting less work, you work even more.
@@rebeltheharem7028true + some people have low salary no only in China others country too
I like how positively he doing his job with smile he is smart guy and also successful 100%
I can relate this with my career. I used to work in high paid banking industry. There was so much stress and pressures. Then I moved to school jobs with less pay and less stress.
Why?? Do you see what companies are paying these days for white collar jobs? They are essentially saying here's not even enough money to stay off the streets so figure it out. You need a $220k income in Toronto to buy a home... most companies pay like $50-60k if you have a degree... the economics just don't make sense anymore and University is becoming a waste of money
More power to them. Let people do whatever they want as long as it's honest work, blue or white collar.
I think the overall perception of blue collar job is changing to be better. More and more people feeling the unreasonable pressure from white collar job and the competition are just tiring.
He will start his own cleaning business eventually
80% of his colleague thought the same
This is such a mentally healthy strategy! 💙 Weibo is such a self-aware, humble, intelligent and handsome man. In case it doesn't work out with his cleaning career, he can try out being a key opinion leader (Chinese kind of 'content creator', but more than that) or modeling. 🤭
I, myself, am half-Asian and have graduated with 2 master degrees and 4 bachelor degrees. I have worked for the world's largest software company and plan on resigning soon to be self-employed. I'm half-European and I live in Europe. Here, there's more work-life balance than in East Asia. But as a self-employed person, I aim to express my own identity, my own business ideas and my own way of human connection more strongly than in the corporate world. 🧡
wow 2 master degrees and 4 bachelor degrees?? you sure love to study? care to share what are those degrees?
People who clean houses/ offices get paid really well here in Cali. And you can choose your own schedule. That’s a dream.
Zhang Weibo looks an idol 😍
It is nothing wrong for graduates to take on blue-collar jobs. I think they can be as successful as the white collar workers if they thrive and persevere! 👍

I LOVE this👏🏻👏🏻 I seriously support any peaceful group of people who want to innovate and change traditions for the better and this is what they've done and that is awesome, that's how improvement gets done.👍🏻
This exact path is what is happening to my life right now. Left a finance job 2 years ago and started doing construction and carpentry work with a guy at his business. Now Im starting my own business in landscaping, working outside with my hands breathing fresh air getting paid in my own terms.

@@SunWarrior155 As someone chronically on Chinese media, his face isn’t the issue. Most of the male actors look like him without all the makeup and plastic surgery. He is handsome enough. What he doesn’t have is the fancy connections from Beijing art school.

Blue collar should not be shamed at all. Not everyone should be doing the same jobs.
I'm French and after 15years as engineer in high tech industry consider moving to a blue collar job, I dont support anymore the stress, having to work during week end nights and vacation and doing something without passion
You have to work during vacation? But what about les jours fériés?
@@jahanb2002 les ingénieurs de manière générale travaillent sans horaires précis, le projet doit être fini à telle date donc il faut souvent travailler le soir ou les jours fériés
@@HighTechFan_Geek Courage. Peut-etre tu faire de l'enseignement ?
At least they got jobs. Some of us don't 😢
Good for them. The corporate world is so exhausting!
Rephrase. The world is so exhausting!
There is an oversupply of engineers but the economy can't absorb so many highly skilled workers because economic growth is a gradual process. Combined with a shortage in blue collar workers, it is a good path.
True. What a waste of graduates
I wanted a blue collar type job but my parents didn’t want me to because "I’d be wasting my smarts"
Ok and by working white collar I’d be wasting my mental health 🙃
You can make big money as an electrician or plumber and it’s pretty satisfying.
That's also the case here in Australia. Is this a global trend now?
That's cos the plumber and electrician are unscrupulous in the UK. They overcharge and con people.
@@s._3560 well yes, you don’t have much choice when you don’t have water or electricity
He is handsome !!!
He is very good looking. He could do some modelling on the side.
I wish i had the smarts for a white collar job. Trust me, give or take 10 years and you would be complaining how your blue collar job is killing your back or making you ill.
I operate boilers. Worked in refineries/chemical/power plants for over 20 years.
Knee joint pains, a bad back, several injuries (burns, fractures), close calls with death. Beside my health, my finance takes a hit too. I'm consistently earning lower than graduates from the university.
Yeah...I would definitely pick a white collar job. Unfortunately, I'm not academically inclined.
Society now is aggressively promoting the trades and just throwing large numbers of unfilled positions in the trades out of thin air. When you eventually get a large influx of trade workers, wages will get depressed (which is the whole point). Latecomers will be equipped with a niche skillset that pays peanuts.
From a blue collar worker like myself, I would still suggest that people still focus on getting a viable degree, perhaps multi disciplined ones.
I am in my early 20s, didn't work a blue-collar job, and my back hurts anyway.
There is no good option. White collar jobs suck mentally; blue collar jobs suck physically. Choose your poison.
or if you're lucky, you can balance these two, but I think there are not many jobs like this.
@@EthicaAnatis well said, brother.
I work in healthcare. 10 years later, my back hurts for being on my feet all day long. My old manager had back surgery in his 50s another has knee problems. Go figure.

i have a special skill of organizing stuff that i learned from my mother. i capitalize this skill by advertising around people with messy houses (i clean and organize their stuff) and i also provide add-on services like marie kondo does. it does not necessarily require higher order form of thinking, but it pays good money on top of being a professor at a local college.
He can clean my body!😍
bro kinda handsome he can do modeling too if he would like to try, but overall I’m glad these guys are happy and feel fulfilled from this work 🔥
it's honest work and essential
Working behind the computer all day is like slowly dying.
Jobs will pay your bills, business will make you rich but investment makes and keep you wealthy! I pray everyone here becomes successful!
If you don’t find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day to realize that the money you thought you had, had exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
You’re correct I make a lot of money without relying on the government. Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at the moment.
Everyone needs more than their salary to be financial stable. The best thing to do with your money is to invest it rightly, because money left for saving always end up used with no returns.
I’m looking for something to venture into on a short term basis, I really need to create an alternate source of income

Propanganda to get young people to stop vying comfy high-paying jobs from those in their 40s - 50s because they know there is not enough and those in their 40-50s want their happy ending to last forever. Propaganda for Singaporeans to see that there is not enough white collar jobs to go around. CNA has been publishing these kinds for videos in recent years. They are saying to young people "be grateful of what little we give you./ allow you to have", look at what people in China are experiencing.
Interesting
Im an economist and doing all the interviews and coding tests live which have to be perfect and even if I am certified in official tools that does not count if I forget a simple thing they ask me about the tool at the spot, I am so done with work that I am switching to other simple careers I hope to live from the land as a farmer and forget all this... is exhausting
This happens now market is crazy many people for entry level 3-4 year you send many cv and reject for this reason many people start small business to sell food or product.
This has nothing to do with blue collar or white collar jobs. Put a manager on him, demanding X windows per hour and you will see him hating his job and be miserable. Simply white collar jobs are easier to set targets and put more and more pressure. It's harder to differentiate quality when you do only small part of a huge task. But in blue collar jobs, your quality is much easier to see. You are a good gardener, a great painter, nobody can easily replace you.
Plus he said the formula: we work together, we have fun, we have sense of accomplishment. In office the only together time are annoying meetings, you have zero fun and zero sense of accomplishment. Plus a lot of meaningless tasks to please management, instead of doing something that will directly please the customer. You work for corporations not for clients. You make them rich instead of making the world better. Of course your soul will die.
ok...why this two look so fine? 1:28 haha
Blue collar work is okay as long as it's indoors...try being in the hot sun everyday for 4 to 5 hours..your skin will hate you...which is why Asians often avoid blue collar work in farming and construction.

Not everyone needs to go to college! There are so many jobs that *don’t* need college. Less people should pressure their children to go to college - we have an over-supply of over-educated young people and the job market reflects this.
Job is job.
Every job is valuable and respectable.
However us asians have a very low mentality. Some think being unemployed is better than doing job lower than their level.
I hope our this generation will be able to change this mentality of asia

Has been working in an office for years I hate making decisions sometimes. I hate solving thing just to make my boss happy. Everyday I wake up all I could think about is work and I started thinking about being a barista or a waitress and smell coffee every morning and chit chat with other worker.
they could seriously take this to the next level - do social media posts about the places they got to see along their cleaning routes, the fun jokes they exchanged, the memorable things they saw while on their job.
in my final college year now, im imagining life after i graduate and was thinking the same but who knows. I don't particularly enjoy office jobs where you spend most of your time sitting in front of a screen, doing paperwork and all... i would love a job that pays enough and would excite me to go to work rather than a high-paying job that makes me feel like a prisoner.
Bcos the barrier of entry is much lower for blue collar jobs, these jobs don't pay enough to make you excited to go to work.
@@gavinlew8273 i believe the excitement would also come from the sense of accomplishment in completing a task, the relationship they've built with their colleagues, and the satisfaction of contributing to society through their work.

At least it's better than those in the 🇺🇸 U.S. where many young graduates can't even find a job as the jobless rate keep climbing and that's the reason why there were thousands of homeless people living in tents ⛺️⛺️⛺️⛺️on sidewalks in every state of America.
Sad and true many people send cv and nothing and recruiters requirements 3-4 year for these reason many people start small business to sell food or others product.

Also, Taking pride in what you do and doing your best at something that brings personal fulfillment is something to be admired.
Well done, sending love from USA
Wow Americans would never do this work after college ..that’s for the immigrants
Asian futuristic people very hardworking
It probably still pays well since there's a shortage of people willing to do blue collar work in the newer generations.
Zhang Weibo is so pretty ❤
The best job is the job you create for yourself and your society. Less stress, more money and long sleeping hours
He really does look happy
5:45 what they are cleaning ? the house is already clean 💀😅
White collar jobs are not limitted to 9-5 it even takes your shower time and lunch time as well, job is in your head always
why tho as long its get money its better than being a hikkikomori
I got degree in Global Public Health from a red brick university in the UK. I now work as a builder who can paint, plaster and fit kitchens. I don’t have to worry about AI taking my job
Singapore must not sugar coat by comparing with other countries because countries are all different. Singaporean grads if become a cleaner would be policy failure because our leaders are paid highest and this is not Majulah
Im talking out of the topic but this guy is gorgeous, handsome, and cute 🤭
So handsome !
All jobs have good prospects, including the blue-collar one. It all depends how you save and invest your savings, it will lead to rewarding future.
As always you get more satisfaction if you are your own boss or in a small business (that’s usually just starting out) with great teamwork. An honest job is still a job no matter the stigma.
In India, pay for blue-collar jobs is very low.
This house is already so clean😂😂😂
