Fast food employees are professionals as well (have you ever worked a fast food job? It's hard, and requires practice to excel at)

That's not what professional means. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profession

Even skilled laborers, like plumbers and electricians, are not in a profession. They're members of a trade.

“Professional” has a meaning in the context of employment that’s not just “good at a thing that is not easy”.
