How is a bricklayer unskilled? A bricklayer can build brick/blocks etc. a SKILL . A laborer can't do that, therefore called a laborer.

I named my son Mason, the name is actually an old family name on my fathers side. It doesn't just mean 'bricklayer' to me, it's a bit of history being bought forward. Just one more thought... The world needs 'unskilled labourers' as you so call it although I wouldn't personally agree that the job is without skill. I thought that was rather rude. I love my son's name and I get a lot of admiring comments over it. Whatever my son grows up to become, I'll be proud as long as he is happy and healthy.
