I was thinking about this today, and realized that my answer that labour was harder was actually wrong.

If I spend 4-5 years getting a degree, busting my ass off in school to get to the point where I am at now, to be able to sit in a desk to do my job, that counts for something. It really is part of how hard my job is.

To be able to mindlessly hack apart a dead cow is actually pretty simple compared to the work I put into getting where I am.

*disclaimer: My education isn't really totally required (read: complete overkill) for what I do and plan on doing in the near future, but there are many people who this does apply to.
