    I mean it makes total sense when you look how much wages are in those two areas. Creative fields tend to pay well when you’re successful at it while the warehouse jobs are low paying. Makes sense for a corporation to want to get rid of those higher paying jobs if possible.

      There is some logic to that argument but it rarely applies to the top management. In my field, ten thousand engineers will make some cars but ten thousand managers will make zero cars. It’s something I regularly remind them of.

      We’ve been told there is something special about our management since the dawn of time. It used to be warlords, barons, kings and queens. We were told they were backed by divine authority. Meanwhile, people like Shakespeare were creating the real stuff of value and we don’t know what he even looked like.
