Lower-status jobs, when we're talking about this, are really jobs that fall into the area often referred to as the secondary labour market. In other words, they're jobs without well-defined benefits, without well-defined work rules, without well-defined periods of work. These are not the nine to five bankers' jobs where you have a clear expectation about what they need. Often it's shift work, without necessarily much control over the shifts as they're given, and/or it's the quality and conditions of work. That's really what I'm talking about.
