Automation and artificial intelligence have and will continue to make many jobs redundant...

by George Lovell | | 0 comments

but adoption of technology also creates tons of new roles.

It's cool to see a lot of new and creative job titles emerging in a tech-driven economy.

Some of which that we've seen:
> Decision Scientist
> Cyber Pain Management Adviser
> Lead Code Wizard

Using a more creative job title can act as a daily reminder that your job satisfaction comes from the effort you put into your job and the value you provide to your customers and colleagues.

It's an interesting thought experiment; to break down our daily job roles and descriptions to a fundamental level, and then extract what we offer to the world. A Receptionist can become a Director Of First Impressions, or a HR Administrator a Happiness Co-ordinator.

So going forward, perhaps instead of Phone Shop Manager and/or Technician, we shall now be referred to as Director Of Portishead Centre Of Technology and/or Gadget Surgeon. What do we do? Help people get the most out of technology. Our mission? Maximise the value of every device - because extending the life of a device and increasing its utility for the user is a personal, social, economic and environmental success.

Might sound ambitious (or cringey), but it's certainly motivating and fulfilling.



Something to think about this morning... What's your creative job title?

As a side note, labelling Apple Store Techs as "Geniuses" is a real stretch. No disrespect, just our experience😏😅

Another OnePlus in for screen replacement.

The design of these devices is quite unique, both hardware and software.



OnePlus has grown more than any other manufacturer this year - 428%, compared to 2nd place Motorola, at 83%.

OnePlus are part of Chinese conglomerate BBK Electronics, who also own smartphone manufacturers Oppo and Vivo.

"Conglomerate" - A multi-industry company – i.e., a combination of multiple business entities operating in entirely different industries under one corporate group, usually involving a parent company and many subsidiaries. Conglomerates are always large and multinational.

The OnePlus 9 RT is set to be released later this month alongside OxygenOS 12, which is an Android-based OS exclusive to OnePlus phones.
