MSNBC's Idea of 'Skilled'



Now, I don't mean to bag on fast food workers, but honestly, can we call them 'Skilled Workers'??

Well, if I had to head to the back of Taco Bell and prepare my own Grilled-Stuffed Burrito, I certainly wouldn't be skilled enough to achieve the 'Run-For-The-Border' goodness I'm used to!

django is a puppet of Ne-Gok-Sa
they cook your food,its taste the same always,deal with jerks all day.if they made $17.75 an hour and still did the same job it would be considered an art form.i dont work at a fast food chain and would not want to but i would never knock there job because they don't make crazy money they work like everyone else and you have to respect that.

As I said,
I am not disrespecting them. I just don't consider it skilled work, no matter the pay scale.

Plasterers, finish painters, mechanics, chefs (not short order cooks), etc.: these I consider skilled. It takes skill to accomplish the task.

Oh, I think you could follow the flow chart as well as they do, the 16 year old goth kid they hired today does it, so can you.

Cavalier's right. While I honor the hard work and lousy pay, there's a reason McDonalds used to hire retarded people.

Yeah, and Subway hires "Sandwich Artists".

I've always been crazy, but it's kept me from going insane.
