Most “unskilled labor” is heavily skill dependant. You wouldn’t want a chef, builder or plumber who didn’t know what they were doing. And for production: machinists, mechanics and foremen make or break profit with their skills.
So what’s a better name for these jobs?
I’d even prefer “entry level” for that, because it’s not skill-less, it’s just easier to get without prior experience.
Even that doesn’t sit totally right with me. Gotta be a better way…
A lot of places won’t even hire wait staff without prior waiting experience, so “entry level” still doesn’t cover it very well.
Maybe “specialized service work” or something.
That’s already better than entry level, yeah.
