It's massively wide reaching. For example, my sister works for Alberta Transportation ensuring proper log keeping etc for commercial truckers. That job would be mostly gone.

I agree that a lot of people will be out of work because current jobs as we know them will be eliminated. However, similar to the industrial revolution years ago, there is also the possibility that Industry 4.0 will create that many more jobs that right now we don't see the need of.
I agree that a lot of people will suffer, but you can't stop the train, and we will need to adapt as a society.
