C'est la Vie...?

Automation seems an all encompassing life trend for humanity. I love and hate it, but I accept it as inevitable - it has transformed my own 25 year career in the tech industry. I now install/patch and hope-it-does-what-its-supposed-to like nobody's business - yay

Does it concern me that especially newer pointy enders are 'systems managers'? Sure, but again - it's the way forward so I won't waste time worrying about it. I just expect them to maintain the one thing humans must always maintain regardless of tech - common sense. Still serves me well.

One thing Boeing can do for me - next 737 please revise the gear or wing or something - my butt hurts
