    Reminds me of Kurt Vonneguts player piano where the only professions that couldn’t be replaced where barbers, bartender and the guys maintaining the machines that replaced everyone else

        That’s what they tried in the book, and it didn’t work. The story follows an engineer that doesn’t understand why he couldn’t replace bartenders. Other stuff happens too, but that’s sorta host starting point
