UPS and Billionaires getting ready for robots?

[bottomups]

Will robot drivers work off the clock so they can be done in 8 hours?

They won't be stealing time being on social media all day. Will probably get done in 7 hours.

Will start in dry flat experiment places first. Then push routes resulting in re-looping. Drivers through attrition will transfer centers. Tech will learn from terrain mistakes and share data.

Lol, dry and flat? Clarksville?

You can’t picture automation doing the job as it currently is, which I agree with.
But automation opens up the possibility of a much more efficient job, different from ours. More routes in, technology supporting the automation for fully automated hubs, different delivery methods for an automated truck.

I don’t know about during my lifetime, but I could see some of your current coworkers witnessing the first fully automated test hubs in their careers.

It’s coming. Never give up pension is what og told me.

Feeders are screwed, and so is management. Everyone else really have nothing to worry about.

Everyone has to worry.20 years almost every job will be automated. You think you retire and not worry? That education bill your paying for your kids…
