Why is this job not handled by a machine yet?
Great post. I hope we get over the stigma of "destroying jobs" when it comes to ones like these that machines can easily do. Whenever I walk around the streets of New York I can't help but think about this. Be it the miserable cab drivers sitting in traffic staring at red lights their entire life; or guys hauling dusty insulation out of a demolition site and throwing it into the back of a truck while coughing up a fit; or delivery guys biking up and down the hostile avenues of manhattan in whatever weather to deliver Chinese food.To me it will be a great tragedy if we never end up filling these necessary jobs with machines, be it for political reasons or something else. There's nothing stimulating or fulfilling about these jobs. It's first world human misery.
