At least in the early 20th century there were a ton of jobs one could pivot to that weren't too difficult to train up for.

That isn't the case anymore. The only jobs that will remain will be skilled blue collar jobs and for how long is anyone's guess until we start getting robots with limbic dexterity and power systems to rival man.

This will speed up as well. My boss was looking for a robot arm a few years ago and got quotes; the quote for the cheapest one was not in the budget. He now bought 2 for far less that are really excellent and indeed, again, replacing real people.
