Reply to comment by Actaeus86 in North American companies notch another record year for robot orders by darth_nadoma

Sitting in an automotive factory right now watching a new system that got installed, hardly any of these jobs should be done by people. Standing in one spot and grabbing one part from a box and putting it on the thing before it moves along is no way to live... Sure it pays the bills, but the environment is stress inducing and it can't be fulfilling.

It wasn’t fulfilling, but where I live factory jobs are the highest paying jobs around that don’t require a college degree/trade. I would still be there if we hadn’t adopted our daughter and they didn’t like my FMLA. But hey it led to me starting my own business so hopefully happy ending.
