    Have you had many manual labourers in your vernacular?

    A manual laborer is a blue collar worker in U.S. vernacular. In fact, if Richard Dawson posed blue collar to you, manual laborer would probably get a ding in the first three.

    Right, well that's what I meant Class is mostly about what job you do these days. In the UK if you don't have a job you're working class. In your country I think people pretty much have to have jobs or they get operated on with rusty fish hooks and axes and die of obesity.

    I think she's just part of the privileged class sufficiently removed from the plebeians. She's starting to take an interest, though, so according to an earlier set theme it's internet progression.
