What do you think is the most thankless and least necessary job?
A job where no one acknowledges you as a human being and if said job were to disappear no one would notice.

Bus driver. Person who stocks the shelves of stores at night. Both jobs can easily be replaced by robots, and in all likelihood will be replaced by robots in the next 10 to 20 years. No one will notice, no one will care. Just off of the top of my head.

@Madhatter Ah, but the job is still there. I'm not asking about robotic replacement. If the bus drivers vanished, there'dbe panic. If no one stocked the shelves, there'd be chaos.
These jobs are necessary.

@RedwoodBarman Is it still a job if a person isn't doing it? Keeping an accurate time was once a job, before clocks. I don't think there's any current job that could vanish along with its function. If there were, it would have happened already. It only exists if it holds a purpose.
