Well, you know this employment crisis all started when the wheel was invented and put all the porters out of work. Then tech came for lamplighters, ice cutters, knocker-uppers, switchboard operators, telegraph operators, human computers, video store clerks, bowling alley pinsetters, elevator operators, film developers, lamp lighters, coopers, wheelwrights, candle makers, weavers, plowmen, farriers, street sweepers. It's a wonder anyone still has a job, really.
