@hibakod There's a new technology, It's doing the stuff you used to do yourself, and now you're worried about your future. You have three choices:
1. Move on / Die
2. Become an expert on the new tech
3. Do your old job, but at a level the new tech can't replicate readily

@xwanyex The first thing limits your tools as the driver of the car, the second removes you from that role. I'm not flying the plane, so I don't particularly care what restrictions are imposed on the pilot

@theistinthought I worked at Costco 20 yrs ago, so things have probably changed but they did have a lot of pretty normal benefits but the thing that struck me was they had a structured raise program- $1/hr/year, which is a big incentive to stay long term even for entry level
@theoliverxp Yes, absolutely this.
You pay your premium for the luxury of not having to have the money on hand to pay a medical bill. It's necessary because most people can't maintain that discipline.
