It's an actual term of definition though, it refers to work that doesn't require prior training outside of the professional sphere.

Technically not all of those panels belong on the comic because a couple are trades which have their own training and licensing processes that aren't on job learning.

A better naming scheme would be "pre-trained" and "job-trained" labor, but that doesn't mean the concept itself is some sort of lie.

Yhe i mean when I worked in the ice-cream shop in the summer I didn't need training.

But I've been studying macroeconomics for 3 years now and they say it's not enough (lowkey gonna cry)

Edit: I'm not saying the ice-cream job wasn't still intensive, but I could learn most tasks fast BC they are repetitive or by intuition.
