Very good people and low-wage, hard-workers are in demand (probably always). What about the others?
If by "the others" you mean the polar opposites of those you named, I can't imagine who would want them as employees. What is one to do with sub-standard, underperforming employees? How do they help a company to achieve its goals and reap profits?
Become "very good" at what you do, or accept the low-wage hard work. What do expect to do -- skate your way through life on somebody else's hard work?
More typical crap from the same crowd....
