You see, attending college is like getting lobotomized. You arrive into the workforce with a -47 skill level and we are AKHTUALLY the ones who need to be compensated for having to train your dumbass to a baseline.
Wait, you didn't go to college and have +5 years work experience? You piece of shit, you trashy peon, you fucking worm, you shouldn't even be allowed on the streets.
If you can beat the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time without a guide you have everything you need to be middle management. You know how to do resource management and solve puzzles. You can think on the fly. And importantly, you have an understanding of keeping track of what the problem is and who to go to in order to discuss it. If you can do this, are capable of communicating information to others, and give something resembling a shit about the information given to you then you will be a fair middle manager. Your idiosyncrasies will just be part of how it goes for others. If this is insufficient it says something about the environment others are making for you.
Just remember this when you wonder whether you're worthy to apply for anything

That’s at least 8 different skills, holy wow!!! Let’s go have lunch!
Stealth check failed
You awkwardly watch as I dip under the desk and crawl out of the office
I don't complain when I work. Doesn't sound like much but after you work enough you realize stuff like that is actually the important stuff
Good, you'll dovetail nicely with me onsite i complain enough for at least 2 people
This is what we in the biz call synergy
I didn’t realise this was a rant I was going to answer seriously :agony:
I can only read this in Yugopnik's voice.
The objectively correct default.

I’m really cute 
I can make some sick farting sounds with my mouth.
I can swallow more AAA batteries before passing out than anyone else in the emergency room!
I contribute nothing to society, but I have a Personal Brand^TM^. I'd like my starting salary of 3 million dollars, please.
Unironically my skill in shitty environments and employments is that I'm a discipline black hole who will lower the entire standard of broom-up-ass behavior expected of people. I will crack jokes, tell stories, and offer everyone hits from my vape
I'm forklift certified!
I also have above average upper body strength and can type fast.
Me still saying I can type 90+ WPM like I'm special 
My boss typing at 150 WPM and consistently beating me at typeracer 
I think i can only do 60wpm on a good day so i think you're pretty special
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I can top 80 sometimes, but I never have to look at the keyboard, no legends on the keys either... I'm kinda a big deal in some circles.
I fix things and I can make you cum (I refuse to make you cum).
I take it I'm not the only one stuck doing performance reviews right now.
I'm good at creating vibes. I play guitar, and my band does a combo of doom/drone/noise that I call 'Cthulhu Doomnoise' and I always refer to our shit as 'moods' rather than songs.
Lost my Skills Wallet in the SwinZone circa 2019.
I have no skills :cheems: sorry
