You could have 10 PhD degrees and be a genius, but if you can't fit in with their company, you won't get the job. This is the North American way.

Correction. TheCanadian way.
This same person can head down south and be just fine.

Not that bullshit doesnt happen in USA.

Sure go there, but you will just be subject to a whole new level of discrination. Try going throught an airport in the US, see what kind of special love they give you.

We born in Canada think of cleaners, taxi drivers, labourers the same way you thought of your servants in India.

I would like to know at this stage what do you mean by blue collar job? This thread is absolutely a waste if you consider a labour $10/hr job a blue collar job.
Let me help you learn about blue collar job, they are skill trade jobs like electrician, plumber, mechanic etc earning minimum $20/hr if hired thru agency.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-collar_worker

A blue-collar worker is a working class employee who performs manual or technical labor, such as in a factory or in technical maintenance "trades," in contrast to a white-collar worker, who does non-manual work generally at a desk.

This term has a stereotypical connotation in American English, based on historical perspective. Originally it referred to the dress codes of workplaces. Industrial blue-collar workers formerly, and to a large extent still, wear "work clothes" with the shirts of a navy blue color. The clothes are more durable and may be scraped or soiled at work. The dress code may also feature protection from work-related injury, such as hard hats and heavy work boots or steel-toe boots. In contrast, white-collar workers were wearers of the traditional white, button-down shirt; they were not intended to do physical work.

"Blue-collar" is also an epithet derived from the "blue-collar worker," used to describe the environment of the "blue-collar worker": i.e., a "blue-collar" neighborhood, job, factory, restaurant, bar, etc., or a situation descriptive of use of manual effort and the strength required to do such. It can also be used as a derogatory adjective to describe something crude, simple, lacking sophistication, or appealing to basic instinct: i.e., a blue-collar joke.

Some distinctive elements of blue-collar work are the lesser requirements for formal academic education. Training is often learned on the job while working. The boss of such workers is usually called a foreman whose duty is to assign and monitor the work of his subordinates. Commonly the foreman is a manual worker himself or a "wing foreman" who in turn is subordinate to a higher boss. Another aspect of blue-collar work is the time clock used to record the precise hours that the employees work and therefore calculate their pay—which is usually based on an hourly rate and paid weekly. Generally, the hours of such occupation are strict (see shift work). But after "punching out" (a process of recording the time leaving the company at the end of the day), it is understood that the worker has no duties until the next day.

Generally, the pay for such occupation is lower than that of the white-collar counterpart, although higher than many entry-level service occupations. Sometimes the work conditions can be strenuous or hazardous.

Commonly the "blue-collar" worker will be part of a labor union which is a form of organized labor. These associations use a process of negotiation called collective bargaining to establish the rights and responsibilities of the workers, to negotiate the pay rate and benefits received. Also, there are laws and organizations that regulate safety in the workplace, associated with "blue-collar" conditions.


---------------------------------------------

Some of the points are common to Manual Labor. Manual labor is this case is different from Manual labor a technician level person (trades person) would perform.

Its the one where you require absolutely no education, may be mostly temp, have no unions, dont require a dress code among others.


Charlie will tell us what unclassified jobs are and if they are recongnized as such formally..
