This is a great question. I think the future is in a service tech position and getting pad very well. From what we have seen as people retire there is no one there to replace them. It is causing companies to have to pay more for hourly wages just to keep a good tech and not leaving for the competition because the competition is willing to pay $3 more per hour. I know a seasoned tech in the area I work gets paid about $32 an hour and is only going up.

The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
