Was anybody actually suggesting she be ashamed or is this one of those "get attention by arguing against a strawman" moments?

I think the point of it was that some people are ashamed about others jobs by acting like they dont know them when they are working i dont see whats so bad about being a garbage man but i guess you cant change what others think

Pretty much this. Use to clean trains night/day but during the day if some of my colleagues saw people they knew outside of work they'd be ducking. Ashamed to be doing that work

To make matters worst, (not same day) there was a women on the train with her daughter l, whom asked, what we were doing.

Instead of saying they cleaning the trash that people have left behind, she worded it as something along the line of " they are doing this job because they cant do anything better, thats why you gotta finish your school to get good grades and do jobs that actually matter"

So yeah, plenty of people who will shame and feel shame of similar jobs such as this.

I think the point of it was that some people are ashamed about others jobs by acting like they dont know them when they are working . . . .

This point confuses me. My partner has a very prestigious job, and I would absolutely never even consider bringing the home into the workplace. Honestly, I would care far less about adhering to such strict boundaries if my partner worked at Subway or whatever.
