Introduction
Job soon to be history and job of the future (Description &Reason)
Give your opinion on job changes.
While-writing
While-writing
What does the worker do?
The worker sells movie tickets in a cinema. They answer questions about movies and sell paper tickets to people.
Why will the job disappear?
Because now most people buy tickets online or from machines. It is easier and faster, so cinemas don’t need many ticket sellers anymore.
Job of the future
Job：Movie ticket sellers
While-writing
What will the worker do?
The worker will be a robot caretaker. They will fix robots that clean floors, deliver food, or do other jobs. They will make sure the robots work safely and properly.
Why will the job become common?
Because in the future, robots will be used in many places like malls, restaurants, and streets. Someone will need to take care of them and keep them working well, just like we need mechanics for cars.
Job soon to be history
Job：a robot caretaker

Our world is changing fast because of technology. This means some old jobs will go away, and new jobs will appear. Here are two examples.
Movie ticket sellers are not needed much now because people buy tickets online. This is easier and faster. New jobs will come. One new job is a robot caretaker. This person will fix robots that clean floors or deliver food. We will need these workers because robots will be everywhere.
I think change is normal. We should learn new things to get ready for future jobs. If we keep learning, we will be ready for the new world.
