You are correct about the industrial revolution. What I see as the true issue is since technology has made our lives so much easier it has also created a much lazier society. The jobs that just require hard physical labor are actually going up in pay scale cause people dont know how to work hard. The jobs that I see being slowly taken over by "bots" are things like cashiers. Sometimes when I go to walmart I feel I should get a W2 since I'm doing the work for them, self checkout. Kiosks at mcdonalds to order food.
Another issue I see is people wanting to be paid a crapton of money for jobs that don't require really much effort or education.

Sorry for the intrusion but I have to ask, what kind of work do you do?
