    You’ve literally just described every job that exists everywhere. It’s a bullshit term to other and denigrate certain groups.

      Lol sure. Are you ready to be an architect or a biochemist or an ironworker or a paramedic?

          No shit, the apprenticeship is the exact thing we claim makes a difference.

          We can argue where exactly we should draw the line: Is a two year apprenticeship required to qualify as skilled labor? Or is 6 months enough already? Maybe even a one month training course can be considered enough to learn a skill. But the fact is that some jobs require more training than others. And this distinction is worth making in some situations.

          I worked in unskilled Labor before, a few minutes teaching so I know what to do, maybe two hours supervised to make sure I don’t fuck up and that’s it.
