RE: You be basic

When I see my nephews, I feel they have many skills that I hardly had at their age. But I also think, socially, they have lost some of the ease that past generations had. There is an interesting phenomenon going on in Venezuela and that is that all our lives we were taught that we had to get university degrees to do things. Unskilled labor was very poorly paid and outsourced. With the crisis, university professionals have left the country and many factories and companies have had to resort to workers who do not have as much experience in their professions. And as an irony of life, the professionals who have left the country have cried tears of blood because in spite of being doctors, oil engineers or architects, they have had to work in other professions like waiters, tinsmiths. That is to say, they have had to learn "a trade", to do tasks even though they are not qualified. A strange and crazy thing. Greetings and good Saturday, @tarazkp
