Not the guy you’re talking to, but this made me think!
I wonder if some 60s american 8 liter engine would actually consume that much. I think it’s possible! Longer startup time, less efficient combustion…

It’s up to employers who they employ. It’s not for you or I to decide what job or what person are suitable.
Water is wet. As for who decides - it’s normally the team members. I have been on both sides of the interview process; it’s a normal thing to do.
But if your skilled enployees are switching to burger flipping because they can make the same money then you aren’t paying the new market rate.
I mean… Yes, but that’s a whole new topic altogether. What are those mythical employees that are switching their careers to burger flipping?

It does. It also lifts all the turds.
You know how to make them boats get lifted even quicker? Join the tide. Invest in yourself. Make yourself better.

In what way is working a more physically demanding job “advancing yourself”?
It’s not the physical part - which isn’t even all that great of a difference - but getting familiar with physics. Working your brain rather than your muscle. That’s an advance.
There’s also a risk element - you fuck up on a powerline - you’re potentially dead. Fuck up a burger? You get yelled at.

So… Putting in effort to advance yourself should not be rewarded? I don’t get it.

I don’t know half tbe names in your post.
I don’t now your age.
Hazarding a guess - I’d say you’re no more than mid twenties.
Having said all that - people, on average, are dumb. They pretend to be experts in fields they’ve had a job at for a while, but most got there by accident and not due to merrit.
Fiction justifies it, therefore it’s popular.
Brace the downvotes from disappointments.

I don’t know anything about any pushers, but as someone who’s almost 2m and had fallen into a canal - I can tell right now it’s not 3 feet. My 2 feet could only reach the soft muddy bottom at the side.
