Question on the development of communication?
What happens to those who lost their jobs when a new type of communication took place? For example, like those people who link telephone calls. Once email came in, telephone isn't needed as much anymore. So what happened to them after they lost their jobs? Or another example is when the radio got replaced by television. There are some people who can speak very well in the radio, but when it comes to television, they don't look so great. What happens to them? How do they cope with this?
If you even have a related fact that doesn't seem to be so significant, tell me. I'd like to learn all of the history because it interests me greatly.

Usually these people move onto different occupations that they were previously interested in before they worked in their current job. Sometimes they can become depressed or they retire. Others will attempt to adapt to the situation and acquire the knowledge they need to carry on in a new field of profession that is related somehow to their existing job. If it's an occupation that someone is particularly passionate about they will continue it, even for reduced pay or try to promote it. The alternate path for someone who is really dedicated to what they do is to give up and simply sulk - it doesn't get them anywhere, but I suppose they feel that it was something that they loved to do and excelled at.
