We have gone to a 24×7 world, where Millennials want instant gratification and seem annoyed if it will take more than 30 minutes for their local take-out Chulent joint to complete a delivery. UPS just announced that they will go to Sunday delivery at no extra charge but they are hiring special workers who will make 40 percent less than their regular drivers and have fewer benefits. Even those lower skilled jobs may not last long. Within a few years, your cholent may be delivered via drone with no need for the deliveryman . (As some of you many have read last week, a local TV station reported that 1 in 3 deliverymen admitted having “tasted” food meant for customers on the way to delivery because they were not paid for time taken off for meals).
Also, SF and several other cities have adopted a “robot tax” for large employers who reduce employees and substitute robots. The tax money is supposed to go into a job-retraining fund. Big brother at work.
