If one hasn't developed their career yet, is that person screwed?

We are already hearing AI is already taking the white-collar workforce by storm, resulting is large-scale layoffs and hiring freezes.

Microsoft has released a study and found that web developers were among the top 40 list for being at-risk. Web application development is my talent and niche.

The question is, is anything besides blue-collar work worth pursuing at this time? I even question the safety and job security of a lot of healthcare professions to AI.

Fortunately for me, I am on Social Security Disability at the moment due to my inability to hold down stable work. I have held 25 jobs since age 15. I am 30. I feel I am even more at a disadvantage at this point due to my poor track record. I cannot risk my disability or Medicare.

We are finding college graduates cannot land roles

Yes

No

Wages in blue collar jobs are exploding. I have a partnership in a construction company and 2 years ago I was paying carpenters $55 an hour and now I'm paying $75. I have some unskilled laborers I sub out at $50 and we can't find enough workers.

I thought about working as an independent RV technician if I can get my health back in order

I've had a steady reliable job in the agricultural industry for almost 7 years so I'm locked in and good.

But yeah I imagine white collar jobs are getting harder to come by.

You live out in Kansas. I'd be growing my own food. I tried growing but my plants didn't produce as I expected.

[Phoenix98]

Wait how do you know where I live? Also we do grow some of our own.

Dude, you have been on this site for ages. I remember you mentioned you are from Kansas. I have literally had hundreds of accounts on here since like 2015. There used to be some girl named Nicole that liked you.

[Phoenix98]

Ah fair enough and yes I remember her.

People develop in their own time, some later than others.

Most roles are screwed and soon the mass genocides will begin

You just have to do better than AI can do.
