#41: Hello Operator
If there was something that could characterize the modern-day world that we live in, it would be the fact that we all very much live more independent lives. There are so many things in place that allow us to live our lives in a much more independent way than we ever have before. And this phenomenon just keeps getting more and more intense…
We know that it sounds crazy, but once upon a time, when you placed a call on the phone, it would be intercepted by a phone operator who would quite literally direct you where you need to go. Generally speaking, it is much easier to not have to go through a phone operator to place a call, but this is just another example of a job that became redundant as a result of technological advancements.
