Assuming your job/role is unmodifiable is a more serious problem that is only slightly aggravated by it being automated.
Some jobs are more easily automated than others, sure, but the problem is that some people don't realise the market might render your current job useless much before automation comes, so you should be ready to adapt always, and in any case.
We like to talk about pivoting business models on this website, but when it applies to what a person considers "sacred" everything falls apart. (not just here, as the automation discourse is happening globally)
