I have a master’s degree, but I can honestly say working at Wendy’s took just as much skill as what I do now. “People” who use terms like “unskilled labor” are part of the problem. There’s no such thing as “unskilled labor.” I’m agreeing with you.
Citation needed. Please tell me the name of the people, the date they invented the term, the justification they offered for the term, and private letters that indicate this conspiracy.
Take as much time as you need to provide these four pieces of data that would back up your claim.
Fine. Maybe an analogy will help. If you say X = 2 and I say that it does not, does that mean I am saying it is equal to 3? You made an assertion, I reject your assertion, that doesn’t mean anything else. A does not imply B in this case.
Unskilled labor does not mean it should be done for free. No one is saying that, except you. Because that strawman is able to defeat.
Packing boxes is not skilled labor.
There’s no such thing as unskilled labor. I guarantee you that dude is better than you are at packing boxes. That’s known as “skill”
Skilled labor is something that you need outside training in order to do.
When someone is an ‘unskilled worker,’ it means they’re only eligible for positions that train them.
Name one thing that doesn’t require outside skill. Literally nothing you know in your life you learned on your own.
I’m not saying you’re wrong, just what people intend to mean when they say unskilled labor.
The “people” who intend to mean that I shouldn’t even be paid aren’t people.

I only have a bachelor’s degree and can honestly say that there is no way I can do my job without it.
It is not about compensation. If the work is unskilled it is unskilled. How much it should be paid is a different discussion.
The people who invented the term invented it to justify low or no pay

I can’t fathom cognitive dissonance of being able to say unskilled and implying it isn’t equivalent to $0
Well, theory of mind is a skill.

Nevertheless, a worker who has been trained is a worker who has become skilled.
A worker who has been trained on a job site is worker who has become skilled in work at the job site.

The only, truly, skilled labor.
