(7)Let's look at some of the recent changes in the US job market and see if we can make some predictions for future jobs
A good way to begin is to look at the American workforce and how it is changing The most important change has been the shift from manufacturing job s to service jobs
Manufacturing jobs are jobs in which people make something or produce things Fo example, people produce cars Service jobs are those in which workers provide services, or we may say, they something like washing people's cars Generally, service jobs are grouped into five categories:
One: Transportation companies Two: Wholesale companies
Three: Retail companies
Four: Finance companies
Five: Personal services, such as hotels, cars repair, accounting, education and medicine Now the point here is that people have changed from manufacturing jobs to service jobs For example, one hundred years ago, 80% of workers produced goods, today only 30% Economists predict that by the year 2020, nine out of every ten workers will work in service jobs
