The McDonald's Quotient
- DrScump 11y agoI agree totally - there are very valuable insights one can gain in any "unskilled" labor context that will serve them well throughout the career: time discipline, customer/public relations, personnel management (if you become a manager) and its pitfalls, inventory, having one's limits tested, having one's patience tested, having one's sanity tested... When I was in high school, most of my peers had such jobs. Nowadays, most college students (or even recent graduates) I know have little or no wage work experience. It's not a good thing, IMHO, and not just because it worsens student debt.
