Some people might argue that the skills required of a job must include general compting knowlege, but is that ever tested? "Oh I can use word, but if someone moves the menu one pixel to the left I won't know what to do..."
General computing ought to be taught in schools - and this includes use of popular word processing, etc. but the teaching should be /general/ and not one application or OS specific.
However, through no fault of their own, some people just can't get it though and I've seen people really struggle to go from e.g. MS Word to LO Writer even though the concepts are the same.
