It could be a good thing

There is a golf course in the centre of Jakarta. Next to the golf course, there is a golf driving range. I was free one afternoon and I went to the driving range to practice golf. When I wanted to start my practice, a local man came to me and asked whether I wanted him to put the golf ball on the T or not. The charge was one US dollar per hour. I said it was OK since it only cost one US dollar.

He sat in front of me. He would put the ball on the T everytime after I hit the ball. Although having such a rare service, I did not enjoy much. My golf skill was not good, I was afraid the ball could hit him. However, one dollar could be a good income for him, it did not matter.
It was around ten years ago. However, we can imagine how low the salary could be in the developing countries.
Automation has be around in the developed countries for tens of years, for example, ticket machines for transportations. Customers have to buy and pay for the tickets at the aumation machines at the lamian shops in Japan. In Hong Kong, customers can pay for their goods at the aotmation machines at some of the super markets. Customers can also order and pay at the automated machines at some the fast foods restaurants.
Automation is a real threat to some kind of jobs in the developed countries. However, I think automation could not replace service sectors jobs completely.
We all know Italians' passion for coffee. There are automated coffee machines on the high speed trains. Those coffee machines make coffee directly from coffee beans. I think it is not diffcult to convert the coffee machines in most of the chained coffee shops. However, there was no chained coffee shops use automated coffee machines, even in the developed countries. If they use coffee machines in developed countries, they could save a lot of costs. I really cannot figure out why. If I was a reporter, I think I would write an in-depth report on this topic. If the chained coffee shops do not use the automatic coffee machines, I am doubtful about the effect of automation or robots will have on service sectors jobs in the developed countries. I think we do not need to worry about that in the developing countries at all.
There are machines to put the balls on the T at golf driving range. It is not cost effective to introduce those machines at the golf driving range in the developing countries because the salaries are too low.
There are hundreds of millions of people earn and live with a few US dollars around the world.
Manufacturing jobs will move to the developing countries from the developed coutries if globalization continues. It is not cost effective to introduce automation or robots for the manufacturing jobs in the developed countries.
If, one day, robots become a real thread to people's job security, I think it could be a good thing. There could be no one earn a few or a few tens of US dollars per day. Most of people work in the service sectors. Developing countries became developed countries. There could be no more poor people in this world.
