    For every job replaced by a robot, at least 1 job is created by way of needing millwright to install the equipment and technicians to commission it and program it.

      Yep

      -dude currently repairing automated pallet jacks

      They break constantly, lmao. They’re so bad, it’s perfect. The more they break, the more job security I have, and boooooy, do they.

      A human will apply the brakes when they panic.

      Robots don’t panic. Robots go FULL SEND into problems; busted rails, twisted metal. Sensor thinks nothing is there? Nothing is there! whoosh!

      The other workers also hate them and frequently sabotage the automated trucks by putting shit in their way, or running over their markers(small reflectors in our warehouse that the trucks align to).
