[QUOTE="CJinx, post: 1171603, member: 37078"] Correction: Anyone with a pulse [I]and a driver's license[/I] can be a courier. They did the same thing with package handlers and vision. Once upon a time, they were expected to read a load chart and learn a truck; now Vision tells them where to load everything. Their job no longer requires thinking, just doing. Granted; I think it will be a while before a computer is capable of planning routes more efficiently than a savvy, thinking human; or be able to adjust on the fly to changing conditions, but we'll all be victim to automation eventually. Remember the Fedex robots from the movie I, Robot? lol [/QUOTE]
