Jobs that dont exist anymore?

Yea i got some homework, and i have to list 10 jobs the currently exist, and 10 that no longer exist; as for example, a person who makes cars in a large company(nissan GMC toyota), machines do most of the work now days.





i already have 10 current jobs that didnt exist like 15 years ago, but i can only think of 2 jobs that no longer exist, but the 2 i have are kind of still around today, the 2 are stuntman that had go replaced with greenscreen and car malers(exaclty like above).

Jobs that dont exist anymore?
