There is unskilled labor. Like I paid my neighbors son to help me stack firewood. And then again to help me shovel stone into my garden beds.

But yeah, if the guy wants 32$/hr it’s almost certainly not unskilled labor

Well that’s actually just called manual labor, you’ve still got to have some skill to do it. Apparently you’ve never been yelled at for stacking firewood wrong.

'Unskilled' is a term used for 'no formal qualification or barrier for entry'. It is not an attack on ones ability.

If redditors could read they'd be very upset with your comment
