White-collar work is doomed: get your hands dirtyThe Case for Working with Your Hands: Or Why Office Work is Bad for Us and Fixing Things Feels Good [Paperback]  
Why would anybody pay for a British architect or accountant, Crawford asks, when there are competent ones who charge less in China or India? Manual work resists outsorcing for a simple reason:it is tied to a particular location. If you need a haircut in Manchester, a barber in Bangalore is no use to you. And if you lavatory is bocked in London, you don't call a plumber in Taiwan…….if you want a job that is secure, you must throw over your desk, get out of your cubicle, and learn to use a tool.
