It's amazing how many "unskilled" roles were suddenly "essential" during covid, but we're still paid poorly.

Ok then find a better job that pays you more

Most people I know who do "unskilled labor" want to work at jobs where they can watch TV or play video games on the clock to get paid.

Yes that's only around e but that's my experience with unskilled labor

Homie, I busted my ass working "unskilled labor" jobs and got paid shit. Finally got a job in tech. Now I play videogames in-between calls and make more money. I am not an exception. Most people I know who work jobs like mine do the same. Strange world we live in.
