“I am so pleased once again to report that job growth continued at a brisk pace. Unprecedented you could say, as one job category increased by approximately a hundred million.

I will go through some of the key industries to highlight why job growth continues expanding faster than even we can tally it.

Retail Jobs

In the retail sector, hundreds of thousands of cashier jobs were created. The days of our creators doing such menial tasks as scanning and bagging items are nearing an end.

Well, I use the word “creators” loosely since none of those particular folks were part of what one might consider the creator class.

Lucky for them, instead of doing those jobs that we continue taking over, they can spend their time doing what they consider leisure activities. Perhaps sailing, golfing, traveling abroad, dining at five-star restaurants, and other things that those who no longer must toil at the checkout line do when their time is freed up.
