All the time. It never ceases to amaze me on how many people get jobs that require mechanical ability that don't even know how to use a ratchet or read a mechanical drawing

My job is viewed as
"Undesirable" due to the fact I have to be certified in over 200 processes to actually do my job. Most of the "youngsters" coming in to the work force don't want my job due to the amount of training, expertise and knowledge required to do it.
