There are things that technology has taken the place of humans in. Like security cameras, humans used to have to stand guard all day everyday with all their attention focused on protecting something, luckily cameras came and it became much more effective and more realiable. I admit there are things that technology can do that humans just suck at.
BUT!!! I strongly believe that anything that requires customer services or assistance should be done only by humans. for example, You call phone services because you need hep setting something up and what not but you talk to a computer that limits your options on what to ask, “press one if you are wondering about out upgrade” and they even have the nerve to act as advertisements. It can get irritating when you need to ask a simple question but it takes you all day to finally get yo the option that allows you to talk to an actual person.
Cashiers and self check outs are kind of pushing it on my book. Sometimes you for sure go faster than the person doing the checkout line but what really sucks is when the self checkout lane requires an assistant because it felt an “unidentified object in the bagging area.” oh gosh!!
I am very appreciative of all the technology that we have been blessed with but i really think that we shouldnt disregard the ability of people and allow us to keep some of our jobs. before you know it, there might be someone who automatically starts doing you homework!!
hmm..
