re: #93 Targetpractice

If you think morale in the workplace sucks now, wait until millions of workers find out that their careers effectively plateaued and all those dreams of one day being a manager with a private office and the power to control the lives of others have been replaced with Hal 9000 telling them they’re not getting that annual raise because their productivity dropped 0.2% compared to last quarter.

And if you wonder why uber does not give a shit about its employees it is because they are just placeholders. The company is building up its brand and network and will replace them all with self-driving cars as soon as technology and legislation/regulation allow them to.

DItto for nearly every single truck driver. I can imagine there will still be delivery personnel but they will just ride along rather than drive their vehicles.
