Exponentially Evolving:Will Your Job Exist Tomorrow?

by Rhett Smith on December 1, 2008

The video has me thinking about the future of vocation. Will your job exist in the next 5, 10, 15, 20 years?

My dad and I have the conversation about how we will probably “cobble together” a number of vocations, rather than just having that one job. And I think those “cobbling together” of vocations will continue to evolve.

Watch.

yes, lots of thoughts, but they will wait until Christmas break, then hopefully i will remember to share them :)

i just recently took a lot of blogs out of my google reader, and i almost took yours out, but didn’t. i’m glad i didn’t because it seems like you’ve always got something legit to say.

Maybe worth reading. I had big thoughts, then when I tried to write them down, they got squished.
