The 600,000 the article mentioned were mostly of this type, I presume (not the part time maybe, but the other two).
E.g. Secretarial/bureaucracy type jobs which rarely pay more then $15/hour, and usually ~$10/hour, are quickly being replaced with computers.
> Careers? Full time, living wage that can support a family, full benefits packages? Those are becoming obsolete, and fast.
I wouldn't say obsolete. I doubt they're growing at the same rate of the population, but there are still many fields where building a career is a reasonable venture.
