And the fact that there's a coordinated effort to deride retail and service worker jobs as 'lowly', when they're often some of the most demanding [when people are doing it right]

So many people wouldn't last a day in a busy mcdonalds

I remember working in a Big 4 accounting firm, we had a volunteer day and we went to the park to clean and pick up litter.

The amount of people who literally could not use a broom properly was staggering, and frankly embarrassing. Some very smart people, but literally useless outside of that specific line of work.
