Elevator Operator
It may sound strange to younger people, but elevators used to be manually operated in the past. People were hired solely to operate the elevators at hotels and other significant structures where numerous visitors arrived and departed every day in the 1950s.
At the time, elevators were far more challenging to use. Guests were not interested in having to deal with them. As a result of automated elevators taking over and requiring specialized operators no longer being required, this work became obsolete.
