With robots handling production and AI taking over coding, “personal service” may be the only jobs left for humans. You’ll have to be “handy” to survive in the new economy. Wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean?
Having milk delivered regularly was indeed nice, and I was wondering how it was decided we didn’t need that anymore. I decided the real question was why it was ever decided that we did need it. I suspect the practice continued by inertia from the days before widespread refrigeration, when milk had to make its way from the cow’s udder to the breakfast table so quickly that it didn’t have time to spoil, even though it never came near a refrigerator coil. Judging from some British TV shows, home delivery of unrefrigerated milk continued over there long, long, long after home milk delivery trucks in the US were always refrigerated.

I’d say that, for the most part, comic strips are for the elderly. I’d be curious to see a breakdown of the visitors to this website
