real work doesn't involve the internet.

Bull****.

That's what passes for 'work' on the internet.

More bull****. Remote diagnosis etc etc etc is nothing like that.

Same with remote reconfig of complex systems instead of
having to visit in person.

None of which is necessary,

More utterly mindless silly stuff. We used to have full time
staff at the local TV transmitter and telephone exchange.
Now they reconfigure on faults and can swap out the
failed stuff when that is convenient with far fewer staff.

The mobile bases never had full time staff at each one for some reason.

just a means of cutting support costs.

Its still work, just done differently.
