Should you be ashamed of your job or business?

Making money is as important as living nowadays as this is the medium for buying almost all you need to survive. We all have different ways that we use to make money, some of which we live and are proud of, and some which we hide from others, or we don't like.

As far as your job or hustle is legitimate and pays your bills, and you enjoy doing it, no one should make you dislike it.
However, it seems the priority that society places on some jobs or businesses and the disdain shown to low earning jobs makes some people ashamed.

My friend has always loved cleaning, but her family stopped her from doing it in public places where she gets paid because they feel it's below her. This is cause for concern as a lot of people face same.

Do you ever feel ashamed of what you do to make a living and do you think it should be so?
 
In my country, there is a saying that "bad job is not like stealing" and what is it that you have to be ashamed of? You are doing your job and you receive pay a day or week or month and you are still ashamed of it? No, then is better to quit the job than to hide yourself doing it.

Gentility don't put food on the table so you have to work in other to eat and remember you are not the first person to do that work.
