Our high tech age is quickly changing the world we live in. Try and remember the last time you wrote a letter, or called someone from your land-line phone? As a result of this upheaval in the prevailing lifestyles of Americans, it is no wonder that certain jobs are heading for extinction.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that by the time 2024 rolls around, there will be 28 percent fewer postal-service jobs, a decline of about 136,000 jobs from 2014. And its not just the mailman that is disappearing.
Here is a list of the ten jobs whose futures are less than bright:
1. Locomotive firers
2. Motor vehicle electronic-equipment installers and repairers
3. Telephone operators
4. Postal service sorters, processors, and processing-machine operators
5. Switchboard operators, including answering service
6. Photographic-process workers and processing-machine operators
7. Shoe-machine operators and tenders
8. Manufactured building and mobile-home installers
9. Foundry mold and core makers
10. Sewing-machine operators
