    Hahahahshsha

    So pressing the button on the timer built into the fryer, since the 70’s, is now skilled work?

    There’s lots of unskilled work out there. I’ve done lots of it. From digging ditches to fast food to loading trucks and delivering parts.

    None of those jobs require more than a few minutes of training, therefore “unskilled”. And fast food today is even more unskilled… Just follow the diagram in front of you. And you don’t make the burgers in fast food, they come in pre-made in boxes, usually frozen, and you load em up on the automatic cooking device (varies by company). I believe Wendy’s still grills their burgers, using a timer and a rotation methodology, so no skill rewuired.

    Hell, even being a line cook is unskilled, and that can be a really demanding job from a time management perspective (I’ve been a line cook).

    I’ve worked for the top 3 fast food places, a number of smaller restaurants, and a bunch of other jobs. I’ve had somewhere approaching 40 jobs in my life. Lots out there is unskilled.
