Porkchop Technology Review's

Technology is one of the best things in the world, especially the technology advances in providing health for people.  Technology also makes peoples lives easier, and helps research, but at the same time it also takes peoples jobs.  One of the positive things is people in the technology sector, IT’s etc, have more jobs and work to do.  But at the same time, people with lower education tend to loose there jobs as technology advances.  I will be describing some of the technology advances that have taken jobs from people, as you know, a computer/robot does not spend money in the economy as a human does making those wages.  I already am seeing an affect in technology in my small town, for example some local stores here are adopting the self check out, that will probably replace all those cashiers in the very near future, and there are a lot of cashiers employed by these companies.

With all the media about the recession and car plants, closing down, car plants have suffered from technology greatly.  A car plant use to require a lot more people to make vehicles in the past than it does now.  Most of its cars are made automatically, with just a few employees doing the work.  I read somewhere that this car manufacturer use to employ 5000 employees in the past and now with technology advances it went down to 1000.  This just shows that technology is silently getting rid of employees slowly as the technology improves, pretty soon it will just be all automated.

As I said earlier these self check outs are becoming increasing popular, and in the near future you will probably not see a cashier, stores are everywhere and if there are no cashiers there will be many people without a job, and we will miss the personalized service that some great cashiers give when we visit the store.  I’m sure all of you had some great conversations with some of those people operating the tills, and also the help some of them offer.

Robotic gas pump, some places still have a Full Service gas station, which this will eliminate, what this is, is its a robotic arm fueling cars.  This will eliminate the jobs of those gas attendants at gas stations, and there are many gas stations in the world, and around each town.

Blackberry, IPhone, and PDA’s now are taking many jobs, now CEO’s do not need personal assistants taking there emails, and calling them telling them important things, now a CEO can have there emails come directly to there phone, and reply back, they also have the ability to tell the whole company current notes anywhere they are, and also companies now have central servers with calendars on there phone programed for special times, and days of the week they have o be places.  Of course the good thing about this, is that you can be on a business trip and always have communication with the business.

There are so many more examples, but this just makes you think, when you go to one of these places already testing/operating these new technology advances, it makes you think at the amount of people who will affected by this, usually affecting the low income earners, and the CEO’s profiting.  But at the same time, these robots do not spend money like those people who worked at those jobs did, so this will also have some affect.  And in all those examples I posted, there are probably millions/billions of people working in those fields around the world, and making it difficult for most to go back to school to re-lean.
