Modern technology is now very common in most workplaces. How do you think has changed the way we worked? Do you think there are disadvantages to relying too much on technology?

Many people believe that purchasing on the internet has become increasingly popular nowadays because it is more comfortable, convenient, economical, and inexpensive both for the mongers and for the customers. To some extent, I agree with this argument but I don’t think that online stores will completely replace traditional stores. It is often argued that online shopping will lead to an absolute collapse of local shopping and there is a lot of example of network marketing that has been successful such as Amazon and Alibaba in the world and Digikala in our country. But from my perspective, local stores are still essential, significant, fundamental, priority, and valuable. To begin with, there are several reasons why local shopping is important and vital. Firstly, when we would like to purchase online, we can not touch goods and products, and it is not quite suitable for clothes and the customers can not try them on. For example, 3 months ago, my wife bought shoes from a store on Instagram that unfortunately are not suitable for her and we can not refund them. Secondly, in my mind, some stores are related to people’s health and they should not have an online sale at all. For instance drugstores and pharmacies because the pharmacists must have access to the patients and their medicines to be able to guide patients about the dosages, indications, interactions, and adverse effects of drugs. In conclusion, I think although these days the electronic business will be developing more and more, local shopping will still have its authenticity and credibility.
