Automation......do we like it or do we put up with it?.... (3)

Oct 6, 2014 5:44 AM CST Automation......do we like it or do we put up with it?....
Automated banking, no staff interface, make a phone call, electronic call service with advertising before you get to 'the menu', making your own coffee in centra using something akin to a space shuttle to make a cup of coffee, paying, or at least trying to pay any bill on-line, e-mailed payslips, and inter-departmental e-mailing....whatever happened to person to person business?....
How are you with the once gradual and now rapid move away from personal dealings in life?....
Closing down garda stations in rural areas, as well as post offices are more cost cutting measures that are changing the way we live, and forcing people into change in a country where the infrastructure and rapid rate of change are at odds with older sections of society, this is just what was rattling around in my head over breakfast this morning....
Have a think and have your say....

Yes I think nothing can beat personal custom service,,,everything is changing,interaction is not the same,,

My mam said how she would never txt ,,rather speak over the phone,

If I want to know how my brother is doing in sanfransisco facebook will bloody tell me,lol.

Will not go into tesco where I have to scan my own groceries,frustrated ,


Plus side ATM machine is handy when it dosnt say insufficant funds,


Everything. More or less will be replaced by machines,,robots.

My son used to have those sim games ,where you create a family,work ,whatever you want ,give them jobs,create their wardrobe,their looks ,everything,

One day the world will collide between cyber space and reality,

It will be all the one,

Even people behind the scenes know are moves on line and off line,,they have our information any way,

Yes big brother is watching us and private eyes,

detective ,that's me btw,laugh

Ah I do love the coffee machine in centre,

And tm machine right beside it ,

Not to mention the hot counter where the workers that come in ,yes I do see some builders and suits,,

Some look hotter than the hot counter,

I'm glad the coffee machine is there,

One can stir up alot in the mind while oops I've just put salt in the coffee,

Never mind ill pour it away they won't see me,
I'm a good customer .one of their best and the small talk comes free,thumbs up
