On the field-based side, you're right.

We think the same areas you mentioned, whether it's agent work, things in that nature get replaced pretty easy.

I mean, you probably have a better sense than I do, but some of the like robotic eco-skeleton things I've heard are quite fascinating.

You talked about HVAC, you know, moving equipment around.

If you've got the assist of some sort of semi-robotic thing, I've heard like the back brace and arm support things are pretty amazing already.

What some of these kind of warehouse type jobs are using are pretty real and pretty powerful in the ability to have people do more, out in the field even.

And some of those things aren't,

That's very different than a robot doing it.

It's technology enabling people to do more safer, faster, more efficiently and repeatably.

I think that's pretty cool and it has a big impact and that's the kind of stuff that I think people probably in the short term don't think much about but in the long term could drive safety, efficiency, etc.

in ways that are pretty real.

I will say, I was driving down the street the other day, and I saw on a street site autonomous things working on the street.

So it's happening in the street today.

And you sit there and say, there's guys standing around, probably with a remote, driving trucks or what looks like those robot delivery things.

working on street work.

And so you see applications, if you keep your eyes open, of this kind of autonomous stuff everywhere now.

Pretty cool.

Tommy, you're in the room with all the smart people, so you have as good of an idea as I do on some of these things, and I probably would say much the same.

I'm a believer in the fact that there's going to be a lot of change.

I'm a believer in the fact that you can be part of the journey, try to get a bit better every day, wake up and don't be afraid of it.
