Minimum Wage Increase

chester:
Why is Supermarket shelf stacker always given as an example to oppose truck driving wages.
Why are no other professions used as an analogy.

Is it because both roles are suitable for both, a shelf stacker can drive a truck, a truck driver can stack a shelf.
Yes I know a shelf stacker would have to pay for a licence.
I have to pay for a licence to go fishing for instance.

Probably because people think it’s a cushy number and anyone can do it.

It used to be cushy but is now hard work and closely monitored for productivity.

However not experience is required. No training to pay for and most roles have very little responsibility
