Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for November 17, 2020

what if…

Many jobs may be gone. But I bet there will be many more new jobs.

Gracie is more than a pretty face.

Then you’ll be like everybody else and with a pile of debt. Pick your field carefully.

If nobody’s hiring, you’ll just have to become a freelance entrepreneur… or maybe an “influencer” on whatever will have replaced today’s “social media”.

Or the civilization? :-o

You’ll be like many. many others, Gracie – overeducated and underemployed!

Only the obsolete jobs will be gone. We used have milkmen and operators but where are they now? They’re DoorDash drivers and customer/tech support agents. Just know what markets well in today’s times and try not to preserve something that has no use and you’ll be fine. It sounds stupid-hard but you’d be surprised how easy it is if you know where to look.

AI could be extremely disruptive.

The only “educated” people who remain long unemployed are those who avoid learning to learn because they really prefer not to work.

Where I live, “junior high” has been replaced by “middle school” (grades 5-8).

Don’t worry, Gracie! Talented people like yourself will always be able to figure out a way to get ahead in whatever field they choose.

Makes you wonder though ,with pandemic!!!

Seems to me she can skip to HS then off to college.

Generations from now, our job’ll be to give the robots something to do..

You could always become a Professor.

Doesn’t she want to start her own business?

All the Burger Flipping jobs might be gone.

The ability to actually Think is much more difficult to replace with a Robot.

That’s actually a reasonable thought, Gracie
