As a techie, I believe automation is good, but it's being utilized against the workers instead of helping the workers. While the moral thing to do as an employer would be keeping an employee who automates and documents tasks, employers with their regular lack of morals usually get rid of the worker to have a worker with a smaller salary study that documentation and continue the same work but with less pay. This "utilize and dispose" strategy only hinders the workers' motivation to document and automate systems.
