    Are we really going to have this discussion again?

    Skill is a measure of the amount of worker’s expertise, specialization, wages, and supervisory capacity. Skilled workers are generally more trained, higher paid, and have more responsibilities than unskilled workers.

      So you’re saying middle managers are skilled workers? What is their skill? Because as far as I can tell, their main tasks are “motivating the work force” and “keeping everyone on track,” and unless they all have degrees in psychology, I don’t think that’s something they’re likely to have any sort of special skill in, do you?
