I lost my job to broad band

I had a steady paper route where I peddled around and delivered newspapers. People didn't renew their subscriptions and choose to read the paper in front of their CRT's and I was found obsolete.

I then held a job seeking donations for a child abuse charity door to door afterwards. I was surplussed too when online giving grew.

Now I hold advertisements on street corners. Carrying a large sign advertising condos at the moment. I would like to see broadband take this away from me

I guess it's time to think about another career? You can't stop advancement...

Ok, you need to start looking for another gig. My company is currently working on a holographic emitter that will be placed on a street corner and will produce a three-dimensional image of a person carrying a sign. The content will transmitted via wireless broadband.

Sorry.

The state or city by-laws might make your job illegal.
There's been a push to ban these in the Santa Clarita area due to their distraction (i.e. sign spinners standing at the corner of intersections).

The real people lobbying for those laws are telcos and cablecos. Its an unprecedented merger between the 2 to form a vast comspiracy to put ninjaturtle out of work!

What about people that used to resell dialup? they lost their income from that because with broadband they actually need an infrastructure to build on.

It Pays to have Broadband is like saying it pays to have a vehicle, after all, we drive both of them every day but how many actually have a license to operate a computer. I've always wondered how many people actually have to wear headsets with the recording of "breathe in and now breathe out, now repeat these steps while you take the headsets off".
