With drones and security cameras getting affordable, I believe that many seniors could supplement their income by working at home on computers — maybe just 20 hours a day total with flexible hours and better pay for unpopular time periods or to fill absentee slots.
They could coordinate with corporate supervision, local police, stores worried about shoplifting, parking lot security, counter-terror, etc. There would need to be occassional alertness tests. That’s about it. That could be automated.
If we wipe out crime, that’s a boost to the economy. Even more importantly, if we wipe out on-the-job apathy, that’s a HUGE boost to our economy.
after 20 hours a day I’d think most would be plumb tuckered out!
