    WTH is a Locomotive firers? If they mean a Locomotive Fireman, that position was phased out years ago. Also, the fireman really had no job to do when the steam engines were replaced by diesels.

    It has been going on since the industrial revolution started. Henry Ford made cars and people that made harness, buggy whips, buggies, buggy wheels and liveries started to lose jobs and/or close. It has accelerated as the pace of technological change has accelerated. While Trump made campaign promises about bringing back the mining jobs, it will never happen because mining becomes more and more automated and is done differently.

    Hey! I had a job maintaining museum exhibits. I was associate curator at the New York State Military Museum . Retired with thirty four years service. I got paid to play with historic guns and swords and military stuff. Plus we had a close working relationship with all U.S. Military Museums. Once at West Point, I was helping out and standing around holding Gen. Eisenhower's five star blouse, and the buckskin jacket that George Custer decided to leave behind.

    On another occasion I got to handle Geronimo's rifle, and Hitler's gold plated PPK .... and Napoleon's sword that was given to the U.S. by Charles de Gaulle.

    Best job I ever had..like a kid in a candy store. :D
