I was thinking of a bar located in some kind of blue collar neighborhood, in the shadow of a polluted sky and full of downtrodden but salty and hardnosed working men.
Maybe a steel mill (I come from the rust belt)? Then I asked myself, 'what jobs, especially dangerous working ones, aren't done by drones [and why]?' I am having a hard time with this. Nearly every one of the big time Mike Rowe Dirty Jobs or Blue Collar jobs can be totally automated with drones. Maybe fixing the drones? Unless there are drones that fix the drones... Oi, my head hurts already. Ideas? |
