    am I the only one who understood this as the dude claiming the burguers flippers being the skilled labour, as in, trying to show solidarity?

      I took it as the total reverse.

      That he “doing skilled labor” packing boxes at Amazon is above somebody “flipping burgers” at McDonald’s.

          That’s how it’s meant to be taken but I got confused too because it’s such a stupid take. Both jobs require as much skill and they’re both underpaid.

      It’s ambiguous, though. They could be complaining about the frycooks making as much as them, or about the frycooks not making as much as them. You’d have to look at what else they posted to see whether they’re generally pro-labor or not. Or ask them what they mean by their tweet. Both of which are made difficult by the username being blocked out.
