OP, you are being too sensitive.

You are right, but people say all kinds of dumb stuff. You're not being oppressed or anything. Deal with it and live your life.

I can argue that roofers, plumbers, etc will also be impact by the rise of AI/Technology. Why wouldn't a robot be able to install a new roof or install recessed lights?

The reality of life sadly


There is an enormous chasm between an AI chat bot moving bits around and a robot electrician working in non-standard environments. Like, those are two different planets.

Sorry you're dealing with that, OP. Your coworkers suck.

Awful. That is confidential information. Is a supervisor in earshot?


Yeah I'm honestly horrified to think that payroll people at my job are gossiping about my financial situation
