blue collar work is monitored closely and paid less because the workers themselves are extremely replaceable

as said, supply and demand

office work is cushier because office workers can't be replaced with someone who has an identical skillset the same day they're fired

Took awhile for someone to dig into the real scenario.

You can replace an office worker quickly but it's not something you're just going to flip on a dime. Being able to troubleshoot a plumbing, AC, or electrical problem is something anyone who was trained to do it can do (because the problem is very standardized; there are rules and practices long-established that make doing such work a matter of simply learning those and applying them to any variant) but being able to tease out budget irregularities and schedules is something that needs a bit of spin-up in the very least.
