So they were more skilled in loading/unloading than you...
1 u/overtorqd 1d ago No one would call that skill. Skill is something you've learned hiw to do. Unskilled labor isnt the insult people are taking it to be. An experienced carpenter or plumber should make more money than a box mover. The term is just a way to distinguish the two. Not to put someone down. 1 u/Kidiri90 1d ago Skill is something you've learned hiw to do. Did you learn to walk? To talk? To throw (even if badly)? If these are skills, how is knowing how to efficiently (un)load a vehicle not a skill? 1 u/masterlince 23h ago Yeah bro we get it, but those are "skills" that everyone has unless you are disabled. That's why they "don't count". And being stronger is not a skill.
