A:
Best Answer:
At least 80 % of "jobs" involve skills. Try painting, construction worker, electrician, plumber, typist, computer information tech, doctor, nurse, lawyer, teacher, etc. I'm not sure I understand why you asked the question this way?

A:
Depends on the type of skill you are asking about. Do you mean, manual type? Need specifications.

No matter what the job or position, it is a skill. It doesn’t make any difference whether the person digs ditches, works for the sanitation department, is a “blue collar worker”, management, corporate executive or brain surgeon. Every job or position requires a person to do it or oversee the doing of it. Using the professions I mentioned, I’ll elaborate a little: Ditch digger: knows what the composition is of the ground he/she is working in and with. To conserve and protect his/her energy and health, can determine what the best piece of equipment to use at that particular time - without going through “trial and error”. Sanitation worker: knows how to work efficiently lift the containers and load the truck. Blue collar worker: is familiar with the workings of a particular works station - and probably a few more - juist in case he/she has to fill-in and work another station. Management: SHOULD KNOW HOW various tasks are to be performed by the folks working under him/her AND how to make adjustments and changes. This is to make sure those folks working under him/her are properly doing their jobs - to the best of their ability and at an efficient production rate. Corporate Executive: not only knows what and how a number of managers does their jobs, BUT MUST also make intelligent decisions for the continued operation of the company he/she works for and for the financial well-being of that corporation. Brain surgeon: must know the human body - not the brain alone, but must know what parts of the brain control which parts of the body. One slip of a scalpel or piece of surgical equipment could mean the difference between life and death of his/her patient. Do you think I proved my point? Thank you for asking your question. I enjoyed taking the time to answer it. You did a great job - not only for your information, but for every other person interested in reading my answer. Thanks to everyone for reading my answer. I wish you well! VTY, Ron Berue Yes, that is my real last name!
