As a customer, sometimes I need the guy who can do a cheap job on an easy task. Sometimes I'll spend more to get someone with a more proven record (i.e. from a rating service or an agency or recommendations) for the more critical tasks. As a worker, I would like the opportunity to switch careers/find my way without having to take multi-year training courses for every possible job. Same about products: sometimes all I need is a cheap drill from Walmart and not an expensive Bosch one that would last me a lifetime. I can't read the articles right now, but I've seen the book in Germany and it did look interesting! :-)
