"A monthly salary of 4,000 yuan can't recruit a skilled worker, but 3,000 yuan can recruit a college student!"
Nowadays, we often hear the lament that "after graduating from college, you will be unemployed", and at the same time, the shortage of skilled workers has exceeded 10 million. Behind this phenomenon, there is a certain prejudice and antipathy of Chinese people towards technical work.
Why is it difficult for technical work, an important cornerstone of social development, to occupy a place in the hearts of Chinese people?
The reason for this is that it is not difficult to find that this kind of antipathy mainly stems from the one-sided understanding and erroneous concept of technical work in society. There has long been a widespread perception that technical jobs are "inferior", stemming from misunderstandings about technology and distorting the dignity of the profession. People tend to associate technical work with dirty, tiring, and poor, and people who do it lack social status and dignity. However, this notion ignores the centrality and value of technical work in modern society.
First of all, technical work is an important force for social progress. From the four great inventions of ancient times to the modern Internet and artificial intelligence, every advancement in technology has greatly promoted the development of human society. Through continuous innovation and breakthroughs, technical workers have brought unprecedented convenience and benefits to the society. However, due to people's prejudice against technical work, many excellent technical talents are buried, and the pace of technological innovation is hindered as a result.
Secondly, technical work is an important way to realize personal value. By acquiring professional skills and knowledge, technical workers create value for society and realize their own value. Technical work is not only a means of making a living, but also a pursuit and love of knowledge and skills. However, due to society's misconception of technical work, many people shy away from technical work and miss out on opportunities to realize their personal value.
Finally, skilled work is an effective means of coping with employment pressure. In the current situation of increasing employment pressure, it is often easier for people with skills to find satisfying jobs. Skilled workers are more competitive in the job market due to their specialized skills and knowledge. However, due to the antipathy of Chinese people towards technical jobs, many young people are reluctant to choose technical jobs as their career development direction, which exacerbates the pressure of employment.
In the face of this situation, we should re-examine our perception and concept of technical work. Technical work is not an inferior job, but an important way to promote social progress, realize personal value and cope with employment pressure. We should respect technical workers and give them the social status and dignity they deserve. At the same time, we should also encourage young people to choose technical jobs as their career development direction, cultivate their professional skills and knowledge, and contribute to the development of society.
Let us call together to abandon the prejudice and antipathy towards technical work and re-understand the value and meaning of technical work. Let's work together to create a more just, equal and respectful society for tech workers. Only in this way can we truly give full play to the role of technical work and promote the progress and development of society. The light of technology should not be obscured by dark clouds; Technical workers should be respected and recognized as they deserve.
