How significant relative to real manufacturing jobs were these reclassifications I wonder.. In my teens I worked as a janny (wide range of experience I have LOL) in a warehouse for a (now defunct) major department store in Montreal.. There were two of us out of maybe a hundred warehouse folks and another 100 or so route drivers..

Lots of jobs were created in retail service with the rise of consumerism.. too wit Starbucks.. lower pay.. and now no more secure than GM maybe ?

I just think the landscape is gonna change ... a fair bit.. not exactly a normal cycle.. but part of the global shift we've long talked about here..
