But for most people the future doesn\u2019t look as bright with the new wave of the internet. As exciting as technology is, many fear it is going to take over many jobs in different industries. Do you fear your career choice may be part of the list?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\"> It is better to be aware now than regret in the future. If you are thinking of a career choice, then knowing about these jobs likely to be obsolete in future will help you in your career decision making. Let\u2019s take a look at a few of them and why they may disappear in just a few years;<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_83 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a15aa4e706a8\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6a15aa4e706a8\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jobberman.com.gh\/discover\/future-obsolete-jobs\/#1_Printers_and_Publishers\" >1.

The traditional media we know that took over the media world is gradually fading. Everything now is found on the internet. If it is books you are looking for, you can find them on the internet easily and free of charge. You can now have so many books on your small mobile device provided you have the space for it on the mobile phone. You don\u2019t need too many papers to deal with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">At no fee you can get all the information you want from any part of the world. If you\u2019re looking for an update on what is happening in the news, you can easily find it on twitter. Traditional media is fighting to survive. With information free and easily accessible on the internet, people really have lost interest in buying papers and magazines to get informed. This story is likely to worsen in the near future. With the internet taking over at the speed of light, print and publishing jobs will indeed disappear in no time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Bank_Tellers\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">2.

This really sends chills down the spine. Bank tellers make banking interesting with their nice smiles and attention. But with the new direction of banking, many are likely to be sent home in the near future. Many people don\u2019t go to the bank as often as they used to.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\"> I bet you no longer frequent the banking hall to join the usual long queues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\"> Technology has eased up the long and tedious process of making bank transactions. You can check your balance on your smartphones or get cash easily at the ATM. Amazingly, you can now open a bank account online from any bank in the world. If you\u2019re looking for specialized services, you might have to meet a teller in person who can get the job done in the shortest time possible by making a few calls.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Telemarketers\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">3.

The industry of telemarketing is being taken over by all the targeted ads all over the internet. Most companies now rely on social media to find the right customers for their products and services. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tech giants have created the algorithms that make targeted ads easily accessible based on all the information they gather on your use of their platforms. These user profiles are gathered, batched and sold to other companies that use them to market their products and services to you via the internet. This is why target ads are everywhere today and telemarketing jobs are gradually disappearing.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Manufacturing_workers\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">4.

Today, technology and heavy duty machinery are employed daily to cater for many factory needs. Advanced technology is able to perform twice the work human labour can do. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">You can compare the way cars were built a couple of years ago in factories and how they are built today. Back then, multiple humans were working in tandem to produce an end product. Today softwares are being created to produce as much products and more. Although humans are needed to set the machines in motion, how many people will remain in the factory industry?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Cashiers\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12pt;color: #000000\">5.
