Can a person without much education or professional skills get a job in our country? In that case, what will be the expected salary? Do you know that a person with no education or special skills is making around Rs 1.3 crore as his annual salary? Yes, you read it right. An American named Cory Rockwell is the person who was offered this money as salary at a time when he was struggling to find a job.
Corey, 38, did not have much education or skillset. Losing his sense of direction in life, Cory used to wonder whether he would be trapped in Los Angeles forever.
"I was lost and had no idea what I wanted to do. At the time, I had no education, no skills, no girlfriend, and no kid. I knew if I didn't get out of LA now I'd be stuck here forever.", Cory said.
His life changed after getting a job as a miner in a copper mine. The initial contract was for six months, but the company extended it several times.
The excavation starts at 6 in the morning and ends at 6 in the evening and Cory needs to be underground during this period. Mining involves drilling into the earth using highly dangerous explosives.
Despite this, Cory is completely satisfied with the work he is doing. "Despite these conditions, I love my job. In fact, I strive to be the dirtiest person in the mine," he said.
