Most things you see a real professional doing.

Just look at the ease a window washer cleans a window stripless and fast, or a bricklayer just gets stones on the same height with 2 small taps on the brick consistently. Many more examples like that..

Years of experience and muscle memory make it look easy.. but it isnt.

And humans want to replace some of this shit with robots.

Window washer working on sky scrappers? Sure, I guess it is a job that can be done by robots.

Bricklayer? Why the fuck???

Honestly, stuff like underwater welding should be done by robots. Stuff like that is so unbelievably dangerous. I could see a lot of dangerous jobs getting swapped over to robots (bomb defusal, hotwork, chemical processing or oil rig repairs when the plant is shut down, etc).

If bomb defusal isn't already being done remotely by drone then someone needs to be fired immediately
