Note I said lots of options, not no options. Also, especially electrical trades is quite skilled these days and might not be for everyone either.

I talked to someone running a warehouse a couple of years ago. They got containers packed with cans from abroad. The cans had to be put on pallets so the warehouse robots could store them.

So they had one guy who's sole job was to pack the individual cans from the containers and pack them on pallets. The guy doing it loved it. He put on his music and packed those cans, not having to interact with anyone for most of the day. The mindless job left him free to ponder (he read lots of academic articles at home). So, great for him that he found that job.

However, the warehouse robot means there's like 10 people working that giant warehouse instead of several dozen...
