So so what reason is that the one with more experience they can guess. They require less training type because given the distribute, people have the same level education and one has work. One has words in McConnell's before, and the other one has not. So the one who knows how Teo make burgers, how to make French fries. We, from the point of view ofthe employees, employers. They don't have to train him right. He can just get on a job and work while the other one who doesn't have any experience, you have to get him to work and then spend time to teach him how to make the hamburgers and how tio start how to make a utter milkshakes or something. So it is more costly. Teo Hi Rose with less experience. That's why does, with experience, can earn more, more okay, And the second question is in that some studies have also found that experienced at the same job hasn't instruct positive influence on weight on wages because that s o this part we're talking about in job training.
