From history, you will discover that there are some job roles and description that has become invalid with time, and people who are in that role or professions, and have refused any form of advancement have been left jobless and behind. Some example of jobs that existed before are; 1. Milkman - Before refrigerators were invented, Milkmen delivered fresh milk daily for homes. 2. Knocker-Upper, before alarm clocks, they woke people up in the morning so people can get to their schedule on time. 3. Lectors were hired to read stories to factory workers for entertainment during long shifts. 4. Lamplighters were employed before electricity to light lamps each evening. 5. Switchboard Operators were employed before the automatic systems to manually connect phone calls. In our present time, which jobs do you think are slowly going extinct? Jobs that have gone into extinction that I know of, I think the job of a town crier, who usually go round towns and village giving announcement while holding a Gong and hitting it loud to capture the ears of his audience, I believe communities now have social media platforms where messages are been passed, so there is basically no need for that anymore. This has not gone extinct at all, it is still experienced in remote areas, mainly villages. Funny enough it has been modernized too. We almost no longer see town criers who beat gongs and shout at the top of their voices, most of them have now resorted to using bikes and cars with mounted loudspeakers to convey urgent messages in a particular environment, but they still do the same town crying since they move around and manually deliver those messages. In most offices, the secretaries' double casts as messengers and in others they still exist. Not every activity done in the office is purely digital, files are still moved around and require signing by various officials and these are now mostly carried out by the direct secretaries of persons concerned or still some messengers lurking around.
