Should we UPS drivers fear driverless technology?

[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 4727746, member: 32249"] The thing is, the automation of UPS vehicles will not happen in a vacuum. Most of this discussion is being treated as if it is. Automation of other occupations is occurring as well. When we get to a certain point that there is no income from the majority of the population, who will be buying products to be shipped anyway? If there's no human work, and robots and automation run most jobs, who has money to buy anything? Thus, universal basic income. Supervisors who salivate at the idea of an automated UPS are delusional as well. Guess who else isn't needed if there isn't a workforce to intimidate, I mean supervise? They're out on their butts too! [/QUOTE]
