Eh. If you can replace someone with practically any able bodied person off the street and a week of training, it's not skilled labor.
Can you technically argue that 1 week of training equates to becoming "skilled"? Sure, but it's a dumb line to draw IMO.
It's dumb to draw any sort of line.

"painted with great skill."
A developed talent or ability.
