skill mix

A term used frequently in workplace settings (especially in healthcare) by bosses to explain the different work abilities of their employees. Often used to justify screwing a "good" employee out of a day off or by giving them more job duties than their lazy incompetent coworkers. incompetent workers are often given days off, set schedules, easier job duties because their "skills" aren't up to par hence management doesn't really even want them working. Bosses tend to tout the "skill mix" theory but never compensate the higher skilled employees for said skills.

"Sorry you can't have that day off you requested, we're giving it to ............, We need you that day, the Skill Mix would be impacted if we gave you the day off."

skill-gated

Skill-gated is any type of game that becomes too hard to play, because of the "skill level" needed to maintain a level of positivity and fun. When players get too good, it forces you to either try and match their skill level or give up playing the game.

Call of Duty has become mainly skill-gated, because of the amount of good players.

I dont think I want to play Fortnite, its too skill-gated.

(insert game name) has become skill-gated.

This is skill-gated.
