Recareering

Categories: Careers

You were an awesome secretary. You typed 100 words a minute with no errors. You speak 5 languages. You know how to use every Google office management tool.

But then, fortunately for the world and profit margins of companies around the world, and unfortunately for you, Google came out with the ready-for-prime-time version of Google Secretary. That new product did everything you did...better, and for $29.95 a month...meaningfully less than your 4 grand salary or the 6 grand it cost the company to employ you. So you, being you, being smart and motivated, and not ready to let the A.I. Robot get you down, went to school and got your CPA's license, then your SIE Exam, and you suddenly became financially fluent. You recareered.
