No Mechanics…Really?
Credit goes to Patrice from the Keith & The Girl podcast for this article. Fast Company Magazine published an opinion piece about six jobs they believe won’t exist in the year 2016. Here’s their list:
- Gatekeepers – don’t care what this job is.
- Bloggers – apparently, we don’t have the drive to stick around ten more years. This one is a little hard to believe, even if the future bloggers aren’t us.
- Advertising creatives – again, don’t care.
- Auto mechanics – come on, really. How stupid are these guys that they think we won’t have car mechanics in 2016? Will we be in flying cars too?
- U.S. High-tech jobs – great. I’m sitting here getting my degree in IT. Neat.
- Indian call-center operations – HIP HIP HOORAY. HIP HIP HOORAY. That can’t happen soon enough.

Great pic, where’d ya find that? Those people are so annoying and remind me of just how different people from diff. parts of the world really are. There’s a reason for that! Yeah, according to that article or whatever it was, the flying cars of the far off future year of 2016, won’t ever have technical problems requiring mechanical craftsmen. Duh!!! Unless they are just so high tech, you can plug them into computers for ‘debugging’ but wait, IT jobs will be over too, so who will program all this stuff? Blogger’s aren’t necessarily talented enough….I don’t think they thought that through very much. Open mouth-insert idiot sucker.
Go take your bikes off some sweet jumps, you frickin idiots!
