      It’s called education. People become educated to be better and more productive workers with a strong understanding of research, critical thinking, individual vs team work, languages, cultural differences, etcetera.

      Every job is very specific. The job training itself is supposed to happen at that job in some way. Doctors have residency. Lawyers do time as a clerk. Electricians have apprenticeships. Cops have 5 week training.

        Another aspect is drive and motivation. You work to achieve in your life, and future, however that’s slipping so we are seeing more people say what’s the point? It’s a vicious circle.

        The edu system has been sliding towards workforce requirements for a long time. Most people cannot distinguish the difference between learning, education and training.
