Bruh I’m just responding to the statement that was made in the meme. Low- and high-skill jobs obviously do exist; it takes more skill to be a doctor than to be a janitor, etc. I didn’t say anything about, and will not argue about, whether this means people who work in high-skill jobs “should” be paid more (you cannot use should in the passive voice anyway)
it takes more skill to be a doctor than to be a janitor, etc.
okay, so privileged knowledge = skill.
nevermind that they had to actually adjust how they score students in many countries with free education because way too many people were becoming doctors, lawyers, etc. collapsing the bottom-line and increasing salary demands for employment of “low-skill” workers; which in turn threatened businesses like supermarkets or fast food chains to fail from labour shortage (unwilling to pay fair wages).
as evident, pretty much anyone can become a doctor if given the opportunity, so how is that a high skill job? i’m not arguing that it isn’t paid fair, it is, because fuck working with assholes all day, and being in the risk of contracting a disease, and working overtime all the time. but supermarket workers have all the same conditions, but even less protective measures, and get paid little to nothing. that doesn’t seem fair to me. but of course, in your world view, privilege deserves better; so it’s probably very fair to you.
I’m unfortunately just repeating what my teacher told me earlier this week, when I asked why the requirements of an A-grade are unnecessarily difficult to fulfill.
