Ever seen someone doing their “unskilled job” all their life? It’s just fucking magic!

The truth is that capitalists hate skilled workers, because those workers have bargaining power. This is why they love the sort of automation which completely removes workers or thought from the equation, even if the ultimate solution is multiple times more expensive or less competent than before.

Nothing is more infuriating to a boss, than a worker that can talk back with experience.

    Exactly. Every job has it’s own skills, whether that be mental, physical, or both.
    There’s not a single job on Earth that you could plop someone into with no practuce and have them instantly be good at it - if someone tells you otherwise they’re either incompetent or they’re lying (like stated in the above meme)

      Yes. Society needs to show more appreciation for every worker.

        “Burger flippers wanting more than a insert other job here, ridiculous” crowd when everybody else’s wages also go up

      What about the, “job” of rich kid celebrity that just exists to be chased by media and brands all day? I feel like you could put anyone in that position with zero training and they’d be fine.

        While I’m not in the business of defending rich folks, but there is a reason a lot of child celebrities tend to go off the deep end - having never being certain of your privacy is probably maddening.
