I'm actually a SAP consultant, i might be expensive but i'm that guy that makes it possible to kick unnecessary personel out of your company.

Until that unnecessary personnel ends up being you/us. :-)

What i mean with unnecessary personnal is people/tasks that are so simple and repeating that they can easily be done by computers or a slight change in certain (sub)process.

Most boards of company's don't even know the possibilities, that's why us consultants make so much money.

I understand. I'm simply saying that eventually they will realize there is some Chinese or Indian firm that will do the work for half the price. I'm simply saying that no one is actually immune to forces of "increased corporate earnings".

Once every single unnecessary job has been eradicated, they will start moving on to the once-necessary-but-not-anymore jobs.

The reason for this is the necessity for them to increase their earnings ever quarter or face the "market consequences". Here we have hedge funds, investment banks, billionaires and pension funds essentially in charge. Nothing matters to them save the fact that the earnings are greater next quarter and thus the stock goes up a little.

An entire system of non-workers sitting from upon high demanding that their slaves produce a little more for them next quarter. It won't end until the system collapses.

Technology is becoming more and more advanced, the possibilities seem to advance by the day. Lots of people already lost their jobs because of technology, something we don't hear much about in the media, they just blame the bad economy for the high unemployment rates. When the economy will move up again we will realize that a lot of those jobs that went gone "because of the bad economy" will never return.

Companies can get rid of lots of personnel, but their personnel are also those who keep the economy alive. If you let technology take over too many jobs you will end up with a messed up system that will eventually collapse.

It's the art of finding a right balance between technology and people, but unfortunately companies are being led by money, especially money on the short term.
