    Probably sat around doing nothing thinking “man I started this job and called it an electrician, but I can’t find work because no one even knows what electricity is. Hell I don’t either.”

      Oh I’m sorry I commented. I’m sorry I caused that painful feeling again you have in your brain like once a year. Carry on in your black and white world I’m sure there’s no data we could look at finding the jobs lost from electricity vs the jobs gained.

        This whole useless chain of comments was simply an attempt to inform you that there was a type of job that was lost after lightbulbs and electricity came into use because you made a comment that suggested you didn’t know it existed, that’s literally it, anything extra is you jumping to make assumptions. No one is suggesting that there weren’t jobs gained afterwards…

          Let me shed a tear for the ice man, milk man, typewriter salesman, and coal heat delivery guy. Some jobs will be lost and won’t be upgraded at all.
