I mean walking dogs is not exactly a “full Day labor”
If you walk dogs for an hour, you deserve an hour’s worth of pay that, when combined with the rest of a full day’s work, allows you to afford to live well.
How much you make should be dependent on how much effort your job involves and how much impact it has on others.
In a fair society, a dog walker shouldn’t be getting paid the same amount as someone who’s doing a more tedious or impactful job such as a construction worker.
On the other hand, if you increase the amount of salary a person who’s doing the least amount of task get, then in return you’ll have to increase the salary of every other individual too, which will in return again increase the cost of living.
The amount a certain job pays should depent on anything but the effort it takes. Otherwise it would incentivise to never innovate and improve methods.
Why should one invent a weaving machine if doing it by hand is so much more difficult and would pay so much more?
Why should we invent the printing press if spending days copying a book by hand is so much more effort and pays better?
Why do we need cranes if carrying bricks up the hill requiers more work and therefore pays better?We would basicaly still be in the stone age.
The way it works in our reality is, jobs that a lot of people are willing to do and that require the least amount of training pay little, jobs that only a few are able to do and require a lot of training or eduction pay more.
On top of that, its also a matter of responsibility and liability. If you miss a spot during cleanup as a maid, its no biggie. If you hit an artery during operation as a doctor its life or dead.
And on top of that its partially the employers financial risk and reward in taking you on. A cashier is trained easily and is highly replacable. Their work will generate value for the employer basically on the same day that they start but it’s very limited. If they screw up, they can be let go without further thought about replacement. An engineer will on average start generating profits after roughly 2 years of employment, but those potential profits are a lot higher. This means that the employer has to keep the engineer incetivised to stay with a higher initial salary, to not lose their investment.As an extra, specialized jobs that require little education but only a few people are willing to do can pay more than they usually would. Nightshifts, working on ships or drill rigs, etc.
Lmao reference to old antiwork. I wonder if it’s the same mod here?
Finally someone got the reference! And about the mods, I don’t know, probably? Thanks for getting the reference dude
