Impact of Technology

 1. Describe how jobs have evolved since year 1990 until 2010

In the past 20 years, jobs have changed in so many ways, and technology is one of the main reasons for this. Because of computers, more and more jobs can be done at home. Companies that had large offices may now smaller offices with less workers because many of their employees work from home. Computers have also made organization and sharing information easier. Now we are able to send files over the internet with a single click. This increases productivity and requires less people for work.
