It is scarey where we're heading and humans will be obsolete in many jobs.

Originally e was talking about automated delivery. The clip has been deleted but showed an automated robot buggy delivering mail. Anyway bit sad that the jolly postie is possibly on the way out.
Every second day for you dooesn't sound too bad.

You're probably right but I read an interesting piece online a few months ago, about jobs that were on the way out.
Now you'd maybe assume they would all be menial type jobs but I was surprised by many that were in the list.
To give you an example, GP's were on the list. So were computer programmers. Bookkeeping and accounting. Newspaper reporters.
Radio & TV announcers.
And yes, a lot of jobs in the postal sector.
Some of the jobs where they project there may be a big increase are not necessarily always in what you might think of as high end. eg home health aide, hospitality.
And some reports conflict. Some see a fall in the need for accountants, some see it as an area that will grow, at least in the short term.
Bottom line is that no one knows for sure, but presumably automation will change the face of a lot of occupations. It will take time to filter through though, it won't all happen overnight.

but but but very strange
all your mates (biden,harris,trudeau,adern,bandt,flannery,obama,hanson young,soros,albanese,andrews,gillard,rudd etc)
are all fans of the great reset as postulated by klaus schwab - in the official video it says "you will own nothing but you will be happy...anything you want will be rented and delivered to you by drone..."etc
This anti-automation angle you have taken will get you "removed" and "cancelled" by your mates.
The question is will ebay survive the domination of amazon in this "great reset"
PS some non mates of yours like lambie,mccormack,morrison also unfortunately seem to lean towards the great reset
