      Or we get lower standards.

      Anyway, my type of work wasn't listed, but the closest I could find would be a 0.8% chance, so I guess I should be upping my rate.

        It's even lower for the latter in the original study where the two are separated out. Systems analyst also comes at very low risk. Think this tool is probably more useful though for the UK as the original study uses US job titles/roles.

                      So you basically count things?

                      That can't be outsourced to computers for sure...
