A significant chunk of the userbase here work in jobs that use <flavour of the month> frameworks "reinventing" the <flavour of the year> stack because it will totally "disrupt" some completely saturated market, in companies averaging less than 12 months inbetween pivots and still earning less than 60¢ in revenue per $1 cost, more than five years after founding because they hire Stanford grads to write CRUD apps at a per person cost of starting entire small businesses. Of course they feel the need to validate the existence of their own jobs by shitting on "low skill" jobs that have actually been essential to keep our society functioning especially over the last 3 years.
- SoftTalker 4y agoSpeak for yourself, my first jobs were flipping burgers and making pizza. Both "low skill" and paid accordingly. I could not have supported a family on those jobs but I was not trying to and they gave me experience and references as to my work ethic and character that were helpful in gaining higher skill, higher paying jobs.

Those jobs have always hired teens without these imminent changes to child labour laws. You are defending something that hasn't changed, and isn't relevant to what people are concerned about as reported in the article link in this thread.
