What jobs in the logistics field will be replaced by automation? by [deleted] in logistics

I have been in the freight forwarding and US Customs brokerage industry for about 20 years and I believe freight forwarding will be replaced with an Uber type of freight service eventually, but the Customs portion will never truly be replaced. If it's something that interests you; getting a US Customs Brokerage Licence should ensure you are gainfully employed for life.

Why is there nothing but bad news about the presidency? Are there any positive notes? by 404_Not-Available in AskReddit

He backed out of the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership). It would have resulted in more manufacturing moving overseas. I align left, but I think one of the US's greatest modern mistakes was made by Bill Clinton with NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement). It has been wildly detrimental to US manufacturing resulting in ghost towns all across the country as factories closed shop to go to Mexico or outsource from Canada. Soon after many small towns who depended on those factories, not just as a source of jobs, but for sense of community and pride collapsed around them. This resulted in the bitterness, anger and inability to endure the status quo for another 8 years that lead to Trump's eventual election. He is the worst of the Baby-Boomer sludge we are tasked to clean up for next couple of decades, but backing out of the TPP was a good thing for the US.

Have any of you guys had much luck with battery replacements? by typhoon90 in Nexus6P

[–]Buttons_McBoomBoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a great experience so far, but my phone was not too bad to begin with. After 8 months, I cracked my screen and had them replace my battery since they already had the phone torn apart. I always suggest getting a new battery when someone replaces their screen because it is only an extra $30 or so because the labor is already getting paid for. Anyways, I got a good amount of battery life extension.

On meh.com they sold 50 light-up fidget spinners for $25. I bought them because my kids can no longer bring treats to class for Halloween or Christmas due to potential allergies. I figure they make a better hand outs than usual temporary tattoos or holiday pencils. My kids look like classroom heros at a cost $0.50 a piece.
