During the covid lockdown in 2020, my fast food factory (McDonald's itself, the poster child of fast food) was still going strong. We were considered an essential service.
That means we as a nation have sunk below the skill level needed to OPERATE A CAN OPENER!

I do fridge libraries but nobody pays me
some people have no idea how to organize books and just jam them in any old way. Or how to look after them.
Librarians get paid to organize books, often we deal with thousands of books, some larger libraries can contain millions. All needs organisation.

Only bought cans that had a pop open top because she could not use a can opener.
As far as essential service, I read a report years ago that found that 70% of all jobs in America were basically non essential because they offered services or produced product that offered convenience but was really not necessary for daily life.

I was talking to a realtor awhile back and she was saying that she is finding that when young clients buy a house, they don't know how to fill out the paperwork because they don't know how to sign their own names.
With cursive being eliminated in the schools, all they can do is print, and so she has to have them print their names on all the required paperwork because they don't know anything else.
Never in my life did I think reading and writing in cursive would become an elusive skill, and that it would eventually go extinct.
I'm certainly not knocking anyone for not knowing cursive because I don't think it's often their fault. The young people just aren't being taught, and the schools say they don't have the budgets to be able to teach them.
But I couldn't help but think of times in history (sometimes not so distant) when people were "required" to "sign" paperwork (mostly for show and a mocking nod to supposed legal requirements,) and all they could do was write a large "X" in the blanks, because that's all they knew of writing.
