Many machine operators make more than many with college degrees. Only in your infantile mind don't you equate post secondary school technical training as a sign of education.
Bookers trained technicians as did the oil industry of Trinidad and as did the bauxite industries of Guyana and Jamaica. These skills are well regarded by employers in NYC. The fact that you don't respect it shows how ignorant you are.
In fact there is more scope for technicians in resource based economies than in tourist based economies. Do you regard training in how to mix drinks, or smile and take orders, or how to make up beds and clean hotel bathrooms, a sign of an educated person? How skilled does one have to be to perform those roles?
Why is every description of Guyana's problems filled with complaints that it lacks skilled and educated personnel? Every president including your champion Jagdeo used to literally go down on their knees to beg skilled and educated Guyanese to return. We don't even have nurses who are competent enough to train nurses because our best nurses are training nurses in Barbados and Antigua.
Guyana along with Trinidad and Jamaica should have the most educated population in the English speaking Caribbean. The fact that this distinction goes to Barbados shows how sick those societies are.
