I have never heard of a job that required no training in order to do it. That’s learning a skill. And if you’ve already trained yourself in how to do it, you’ve still learned a skill. I can’t think of a job that you can do without any training whatsoever.
It’s a matter of degree. Comparing the training of a delivery driver or custodian to that of a doctor, engineer, or professor is, frankly, just stupid. This is what is meant by skilled versus unskilled labour.
No one made such a comparison. Again- any training or education is learning a skill. It doesn’t matter if it’s 8 years in a university or 8 hours as a dishwasher. There is no job I can think of that doesn’t require at least some training or education. Can you?
No. Being trained to do something is learning a skill. It’s that simple. I’m not sure why that isn’t clear to you yet. How many more times do I need to repeat it?
It sounds like you’re taking issue with the terminology and not the concept.
Unskilled labor being the kind you learn on the job and any normal human can be trained to do, vetsus skilled labor that requires university/apprenticeship/trade school. It’s hours or days of training compared to years of specialized training.
I don’t like this particular turn of phrase either, but here we are.

Jobs with minimal training required are unskilled labor.
Was that so hard to understand?
“Minimal training” = learning a skill.
It is skilled labor.
Fucking breathing is skilled labor by your definition.

Ok fine. We want to be obtuse. Let’s separate it into minimally skilled and more skilled.
The difference is if you require a degree or license or some other certification of non-career training prior to being considered for the job.
You and I have definitely worked for totally different companies then.
Where have you worked where a job requires absolutely no training whatsoever?

Yes, that’s what the investor class thinks. They are wrong.
Yeah I doubt it. I can flip any burger you got, you come design my machine learning algorithms.
