from (me on the IT side of the fence VS those on the other side of the fence that lost jobs as a result of IT mechanization).

In my company's case, we had a career path for those whose jobs were declared surplus or not needed, so most either moved to new jobs (same kind of job, or different job, via career path). Sometimes unfortunately we had to have buyouts/early retirement packages for some areas.

Retail has borne a heck of a lot of changes over the last 30 years or so. My sister has worked at Walmart since the mid 70s. Finally able to retire a couple of years ago so I was happy she finally got away from them.

Take care.
