    Enshitification is where there’s a CEO somewhere that fucks everyone…

    That person really should be the focus of hate here.

    Speaking of which, why is some waged labor characterized as “skilled”, and other not?

    How has such a construct become entrenched, and in what context has it been utilized?

      A legal definition stating that special training/experience/certifications is required for that job, vs “routine” job functions.

      For the guy at Amazon this could be fork lift certs, equipment certs, etc For the McDobalds worker this could be hazardous job training for chemicals, hot work, food prep/food handling training/culinary training, and maintaining the equipment.

      Note, both could have job responsibilities “beyond the normal range”.

      That is what is intended by the “skilled” description.
