You're an idiot. Without these people making it a career you wouldn't have someone to run the businesses where you go eat. There's absolutely nothing wrong with making it a career. Nothing wrong. You would think you'd want the people handling your food to be happier. Imagine if a garbage man never made trash his career. Who would pick up your trash? Or who would take care of it when you took it to the dump? All these jobs are needed no matter what you think of someone who makes it a career. They also deserve to make a livable wage. Not saying it's 15 an hour but it's a hell of a lot more than whatever the min is.

Annoyed and Nodoze, you two are oblivious to reality. You're either not paying attention or you're one of those gullible Romney followers saying see you soon to rich people. Can you become rich? Of course. Chances are you won't.

Is robot repair a good field to enter? Absolutely. But just like flipping burgers wasn't meant to be a career, don't count on repairing anything to be one soon. Know why? Cause robots can fix robots. AIs being developed now will be replacing every job. You probably read an article written by one today. They advise doctors and soon will replace lawyers. They will provide security, cook your food, deliver your goods. Hell your kitchen might order your groceries based on a menu approved by you based on your families likes from previous meals.

But you conservatives(at least in Annoyed's case) always have that arrogance where you been tricked into believing you're exempt. But you'll soon learn you're just like the person who ignored nazi atrocities because you weren't a part of a persecuted group.

And make no mistake, this is a sort of persecution. The vast majority just don't realize they are barely removed from those at the bottom because they are incapable of seeing past the labels applied to keep them from recognizing the commonalities.

There was a twilight zone episode like the one you described.

Well, there is going to be a point where people will need jobs, as no matter how many robots they have to make new things, the company wont be able to sustain itself if no one has money to buy their products.

Oh you're absolutely right. So either one or 2 things have to happen. We need to switch to a universal pay where everyone gets paid regardless of what they do. Which let's be real no one will be happy with that. Or we need to make laws that protect people from having their jobs taken away by robots and what not. That won't happen either so it's going to be a rough rough future for a lot of people if things keep going the way they're going.
