Mass starvation in 3rd world countries. Countries like India already sterilize their lowest social classes in a bid to reduce population. But robots will replace menial labourers, after all, and without any jobs they can't be paid so they'll die. Don't say oh they can get educated & better jobs. It an't that simple.
The divide between poverty and upper class will become considerably larger in 1st world countries. The middle-class in some countries is, after all, almost entirely gone nowadays. Menial labour jobs will be widely nonexistent which means more people will rely on welfare & crime to survive. Such, however, will increase taxes and what not on the "working" society to compensate.

There will be more creative jobs (artists, photographers, wedding planners, fashion designers), sports instructors, tour guides, academics and researchers...
Anyone who has worked in these artistic fields would be quick to point out that unless you are
talented and/or have the
right connections nowadays such "jobs" are a hobby. They're
not a career. Many have-not artists live cheque to cheque, work odd jobs or have an actual career to make sure they're living on the street corner come the end of the month.
The artistic field is a dog eat dog world & some, such as fashion design, isn't how talented you are but who you know. Big-name "designers" like what's-her-face Beckham isn't designing sh*t she's endorsing others' work by putting her name on it.
I happen to know quite a bit about that as I
am an artist & photographer on the side, a cousin
is a fashion designer, and cousins/friends
are in the music industry.
Similarly one needs to be educated to be a sports instructor - the field isn't open to every tom, dick & harry. Same as how a majority of sports announcers, judges, rule makers, etc. have been in the industry for years or decades even. Specialized sports instructors who are educated on muscle techniques, massages, medicines, etc. for aches, pains, etc. will of course be hired more readily and get more money than Bob-off-the-street.
Tour guides will, in due time, become available
only to people fluent in multiple languages. Depending on the region, religion, and social ideology limitations may also be placed on a person's race, appearance, and sex.
Academics & researchers - this career is like writing books for every hundred that try only the top five or ten percent achieve anything of note.
