A TikTok has gone viral
showing a person
folding jeans
with a snap of his hands.
Retail workers
have supported it.
Some claim
to be able
to do the same thing
with dress shirts.
A quick service restaurant worker
talked about
how she could wrap two burgers
at the same time,
holding one in each hand.
There is NO unskilled labor.
Every job has
tricks to learn
and skills to obtain
to do it well.
Remember that
when you’re deciding
on wages
and interacting
with employees.
A friend’s neighborhood
planted trees.
They were all volunteers.
They had no training.
But how hard could it be?
You just dig a hole
and stick a baby tree in it,
right?
Months later,
EVERY tree planted
has died.
Every single one.
I was trained in tree planting
years ago
and even I could see
the trees were planted incorrectly.
There are NO unskilled jobs.
NONE.
Every job
-planting trees,
handing out flyers
at the mall,
flipping burgers-
requires skill.
Train your employees.
Then seek to retain
those SKILLED people.
