Is A Blue Collar Stigma Crippling America? | EP320 | Dr. Phil Podcast

There is a serious threat to the future of this country, one that could threaten every aspect of America’s infrastructure, leaving families and businesses helpless. Many blue-collar professionals say there is a stigma keeping young adults from rolling up their sleeves and replacing the men and women who are aging out, creating a crippling labor shortage. First Dr. Phil speaks with 22-year-old Mikey, who says he quit his job as an electrician because it made him miserable. He says his generation has easier ways to make a living. Plus, Ari, is an owner of a successful law firm, and says to be successful, young adults should be pushed to get advanced degrees, not be plumbers and coal miners. The debate heats up when Dr. Phil introduces Texas Master Plumber, Roger Wakefield, and, Jamison, a co-owner of multiple construction companies who both say the stigma towards blue collar workers is real. Find out what happens when Dr. Phil surprises, Lucy, a 20 year old, who has gone viral online for her refusal to work a 9-5 job mantra with a trip to get her hands dirty with Master Plumber, Roger Wakefield. Lastly, Dr. Phil speaks with Lisa who says when her husband sadly passed away, many felt she couldn't run their ranch by herself, boy did she prove the doubters wrong.
