Just because a job pays well, doesn't make it a "real" job.

Agreed.

... Consider the
huge salaries paid to professional athletes...

I'd consider that a "real job" because it is certainly hard
work even if only for part of the year, and performance is
very seriously judged on an easily quantified scale.


... or the huge salaries paid to
some schlep sitting around doing absolute nothing just because his job is
protected by a union.

Are you surprised NOBBY can't speak Yiddish? I'd call the
above guy a schlemiel.

I was also waiting for him to define a person as not holding
a "real job" even though well paid to include the clueless
dork playing video games in the Oval Office all day.
