    These jobs can disappear more quickly than they appeared in the first place. Yes there will still be roles at very senior levels carried on by humans, but digitisation is starting to take over in a lot of areas. I think we will finds the number of opportunities in these areas will diminish, with more people chasing fewer jobs. Those in manual professions though will be in higher demand as the population has generally upskilled in recent years

    Many of those roles that are not automated will be farmed out to cheaper locations. Indeed in my business that's already happening. Flexible working will mean people can work from home. The High Street is starting to show signs of wilting, and will follow what's currently happening in the UK. The work environment will be very different to today (and today is very different to what it was 15 years ago, which was itself very different to when I started working in the early 80s), and certainly not as "city-centric" as it has become recently

    With automation - agreed that will happen a lot more - but for mundane tasks like data entry , I can't see automation taking over programming, or at least if it does new jobs will be created out of this.

    But what I would worry more about is your 2nd point jobs going to 3rd world countries to save more money.

    That could be a f*cking disaster.
    I'd be on my arse on the street!

    It’s the software folk who will be doing the automation software.

    Exactly, even QA was thought to be gone as a lot of QA is automated now - but manual QA is still essential, and of course former QA manual testers are now upskilling to automate using code.


    But still, the job relocating to India is always a worry.

    It's excellent .... to a point.
    Then it breaks down and doesn't look like they will make a breakthrough anytime soon.

    Hope it stays that way.

    We don't want this to happen

    I can't afford **** so from my selfish perspective I can't wait for the economy to hit the floor again.

    Is your job recession proof?

    That's the bit that doesn't make sense to me and should have been explained by the journalist. Firstly, given the age profile, regardless of salary, how can there be so many owner occupier cash purchases. Secondly, why are landlords leaving the market? Sale prices are suppressed, and the rental yield is much higher than other parts of the country. Also, given the makeup of the tenants, there would be very few problem tenancies.

    I don't get the figures either unless the data only came from someone only dealing with high end property.

    But you do see a lot of non Irish professionals in the area. You also see a lot of Irish but I think a lot of them commute. You also see a lot of high end cars.

    LL leave because the risks and losses are too high from overholding. The legislation is stacked against the LL in any dispute. It's easier to invest in a REIT or something else. Also the Govt don't want landlords, and neither does anyone else. There's more legislation due that will make it even harder for LLs. I expect there will be a lot more leaving this year.

    Its not just the googles and facebooks which pay salaries like that there are a lot of low key financial institutions, French and German banks and so on in Dublin that pay very well and as a bonus do not have the america corporate culture.

    Lots of aircraft leasing and financing work goes on down there as well. They are paid well north of 200k a year.

    And I expect there are a few CEOs on seven figure salaries.

    If you have one person on €1m per year and twenty on €70k (Which isn't particularly high for Dublin) then you have an average of around €114,000.

    it only takes a few very very high earners who have a big house in the country and an apartment in the Docklands for use during the week and suddenly you have a very skewed average earnings figure.

    Given the number of big companies headquartered there, having ten people on seven figure salaries is highly likely I would guess.

    Don't forget this figure came from an estate agent as well and as we all know, estate agents will come up with any sensationalist bull**** to drive up prices.

    I wonder is it nature of the salaries in the dock lands, finance, IT, skewing salary expectations for graduates or even in general.

    Exactly. Especially in a market likely at its peak.

    There is no way the average rent in the docklands is that amount.

    Is the northside part of the docklands being counted in this?

    From what I can see on daft its around 2,500/month for a 2 bed which is double of what it really should be (and is double of what it was only 3 years ago by the way) so this 3,500/4,000 sounds miles off to me.

    Simple..look up daft.ie and see what is for rent....
