In the capacity of being a non-citizen of this country as of today. I postulate that we might see corporations seeking intimacy with companies working on robotic workforce(s). Given that a lot of corporations that are manpower intensive have been forced to collaborate with a workforce that does not want to work post pandemic, the companies have had to throttle back on their profits for the quarter. Therefore, the companies might have to make a conscious choice to increase or improve the velocity with which they want to automate their workforce. These big companies are desperately wanting to get a grip on their work force loss and the subsequent degradation of their profit margin. For those people who have not taken advantage of the post-COVID economic hiring boom, I fear the horse is out of the barn and they need to ratchet down any of their hopes of climbing the socio-economic ladder and tuck away their entitled attitude for the foreseeable future.
