That stuff isn’t a growing industry. I’m a production mechanic that works with automation techs (re: EE’s) all the time. I want to work in a growing industry because that’s what pays the bills in the long term.
I made a list and the only thing I could see growing over the next 30 years was government and I’m not interested in doing that.
You are fine. A coming boom is robotics. Manufacturing will be returning to America and there will be many jobs fixing the production line. Repetitive jobs screwing on lug nuts though: not so safe.
