    Yep. Surprisingly, highly skilled jobs are also on the cutting board as long as they are repetitive.

    In this generation, worried about jobs being shipped out, first.

    I've seen tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands in the past ten years...

    You really have to adapt and improve your skillsets. Masmalaki nga ang chance na maoutsource yan before ma-automate. A lot of the multinationals are still targeting India more than the PH sa mga back office processes kahit mas mediocre ang quality ng work nila.

    I'm a programmer and my job is creating automation. I work for a team of people mostly encoders and QA. I usually create programs that can replace encoders and QAs job. Although it results in less need of encoders and QAs but new jobs are also created, like runners, they are the ones who accept the job and feed it to the automation and monitor the progress.

    I think these automation will make some jobs extinct, but it will also create new roles and opportunities. The key here is to adapt with the changes.

    IMHO, robot might be the killer
    of call center jobs here in Ph. You will be scared of how good they develop robot nowadays, highly interactive already.
