      Are there’s still manual production runs in the first world? The one machinist I know IRL does manual stuff now, but it’s all bespoke, and his colleagues sound like they might not have heard of CNC.

      That’s certainly a lot of machinists. I’m not production, about half my job is maintenance. Half my job is making parts. And half my job is screwing around.
