    No job is unskilled. Not all jobs are skilled.

    I work in a “skilled” position where it is completely reasonable to expect to be able to hire someone and have to spend very little time training them. There will be a bit of onboarding as with any job, but the nuts and bolts of how to do their job.

    I’m not saying “unskilled” jobs don’t deserve a living wage, far from it. I’m just saying there’s a reason there’s a difference between the two, and one commands a premium.
