Hey agree that if a worker isn't worth a shit then he/she should be gone. Technology is here and its not the workers to blame. People like to say that the workers asking for more money is the cause of automization (sp) in the work place. I don't thinks that true. An employer is gonna look for ways to cut costs no matter what and if a machine does it then thats the way they are gonna go. Funny thing is though in my industry is in our last contract our employer offered more money to take away certain jobs from us. As well as upping 401k and retirement. So far it has kicked them in the ass since their multi million dollar computer systems have been nothing but pieces of shit and slow our job down. Now they have to hire more people to make up for it.
DJ,
good point
