What defines blue collar and white collar jobs? Is it literally the dress associated? Maybe the amount of ones salary? The type of work? The work environment?
At one time, men who worked in formal, office type environments actually wore removable white collars as a part of their business attire. That's where the term came from.
Today, anything office or computer based, etc is considered white collar. Anything manual or service related is blue collar.

Is there a chance some professions incorporate both, leading to a light blue collar?
Its not defined by salary, only the type of work being performed.
