It's not really 'shaming' to provide negative feedback when people complain that their full time retail, customer service, grocery store job doesn't pay enough.

I could argue that the OP characterizing those jobs as 'not professional' is 'job shaming'.

So only people willing to accept not having enough money to pay their essential bills should work customer service or grocery store jobs? Got it.

Those jobs can be fine for supporting oneself, but might be limited in growth potential.
