It has been said that robots will take over in the future of labor and at the plight of human workers. Key employers in manufacturing, logistics, and many services, are presumably consenting to the notion—but what happens after that? Our sister company, Bob & Ron's Survey, dived into depths to paint a picture of the future in the eyes and wisdom of major employers.
Giant business moguls were asked for their expert opinions about how this might pan out and what happens further. "Robots can only do so much good for so long, but they will not be here to stay," said Monte Riggs, a CEO of a major limousine manufacturing company. "Robots will be replaced by chimps in a couple of decades," the freshly tanned 58-year-old Riggs added.
The survey states that 79.6% of employers would eventually want to switch back to manpower as most jobs require emotional factors that only us human beings can provide. However, the increased costs in wages, benefits, and other legal human rights and demands of the future will ultimately deter businesses. This will undeniably lead to resorting to the next best thing, the chimpanzees.
"Widely regarded as the smartest animals, they are next in line in the realm of flesh and blood," said Tyra Cruz, the Director of Human Resources of the Cat & Mouse Inc., a giant retailer and Fortune 500 company. "I mean, we've had our exploits with horses, donkeys, and whatnot for thousands of years. This isn't really new," the 200-and-something pound matriarch continued.
"I'm profoundly excited about this idea. All will—however—depend on how much progress and stability we can gain in training and evolving our dear primate cousins," said Edward Smoulders, the General Manager of Island Zoos, the largest zoo franchise in the world.
Mixed reactions were gathered, especially from animal rights activists, saying there's a lot to take in. "Then we're gonna want to talk about working hours, dress codes, healthcare, and all the chambawamba," said Jenna McMills, a community animal welfare spokesperson. "How about all the screwing that's gonna happen at the workplace?" Woodrow Macdonald, a foam and rubber factory laborer, also vigorously chimed in.
