Right now, I'd pick physical labour over IT. I'm sick of being attached to a desk 12h a day looking at a screen and making some predatorial company richer.
I'd rather be cleaning up my neighborhood, planting flowers in the park, or working at an animal shelter or the local soup kitchen. Actually making a fucking difference in society.
fellow IT worker here ....
The sickle and hammer are not representative of planting some flowers in a garden.
If you've never done any real farming, I recommend you try it even for a day to learn a whole new appreciation for our modern way of life. It is brutal backbreaking work ... and so were most industrial jobs from the era of soviet communism.
Thank god for modernization, but I also agree on the despair of being a slave for an ultra rich asshole. I'm dealing with it by starting a corp with a couple of buddies that is owned by us and doing some work on the side .... hopefully this can eventually free us from the chains.

Those jobs still exist, you just outsource them to Pakistan and India.
As much as everyone would rather do meaningful things with their time, communist societies need ditchdiggers too!
Construction and manufacturing takes all types, no experience needed, but I found factory work to be a great motivator to get into IT. Grass is always greener, I suppose
I think the big issue is lack of variance in your work. Human brains need different stimuli. S o if you do only one type of work all the time, you want something different after a while and yearn for another extreme.
Problem is: that runs counter to taylorism.

I gladly dig ditches, if it's not the only thing I do.
