one of my jobs would not even exist without computers

the other would be just fine and actually existed before computers were used by the general population

yes i could do my job but it would take for freaking ever...not that this would be a bad thing but that is what would happen.


actually if computers went away i bet you the building industry would improve ( it would cost more to build but you'd get a better product )

I can't even imagine the world without computers running it.

I dont know how people in the early/mid 1900s did it.

meteorological models are computers


so no

I mean, in some respects, I probably could do my job, but it'd be much more difficult than it already is

I teach programming and logic, video game design, and robotics.

So, that's a negative, Ghostrider.

Of all my jobs, half could be done without computers, and half would be gone or unable to be done with one person.

Vet Tech: Yea.
Ran Peanut Sorter Machine: Not by myself. Computer with digital cameras sorted at a high rate. You could do it by hand, but not with just one person. Would need 8 people to do what that thing does by itself.
Rental Cars: Would be a lot more paperwork, but could be done without computers.
Cellphone Sales: Yes the job could be done without computers, though technically cellphones use computer equipment in them.
Computer Technician (current job): I'd still be doing one of the other jobs as this job would not exist.
