RE: Champions of Vocational Skills
On the one hand, having worked in supermarkets and retail stores, the competitive bagging engendered some not so positive feelings. But, at the same time, the people taking part were clearly skilled within the confines of the task they specialized in and taking the whole thing quite seriously. There's almost a zen quality in committing to do such a banal task extremely well.
At the end of the day, everyone wants to be treated with dignity and respect in whatever they're doing, and those people seem to be receiving that, even if the context is not intuitive to me. So far be it from me to speak ill of the competition.
Well said. If it makes people feel good about themselves and their place in the world (as long as it doesn't hurt anyone or limit their potential somehow), then it's probably a good thing.
