I actually like seeing my job as a craftsmanship, because (at least in my native language) there is a certain "honour of doing good work" connected to it.

Also, no shame to work a trade job at all. Not sure where people get that idea?!

I honour every trade job! And as an office worker (secretary/ developer) I really miss to create something physical or with my hands. I started to create my own feminine developer t-shirts (NERDpraunig.com), something I can touch and wear. I don't care which profession someone chooses and whether it is more brain or more physical work.

Nice in context link drop :) Consider adding a link to the medium article (aka a blurb at the bottom "visit the authors site at ...") to generate some traffic.
