They'd need training to work at Tesco filling shelves or collecting
trolleys so an aptitude test could be the bridge too far.

An Engineer or farmer can be quickly trained in all sorts of low
skilled
tasks, as can all the young people that also do these jobs. The problem
is
it is difficult to train a Tesco shelf stacker to run a farm or design
high
tech
equipment when the need arises.



There's an old saying - it's easy to turn pigs into sausages, but
difficult
to turn sausages into pigs.


yes,
It is interesting, most farmers tend to walk into driving jobs, or those
where the boss can just ask them to do something and leave them to get on
with it without supervision.
