fallen_milkman Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Darn! Someone brought up Alaskan fishing boats before I did! That was my choice. They pay really well though, all things considered. You work for 6 months a year, and are paid somewhere around $40,000 for it (I forget the exact figure). You just have to get around that whole "most dangerous occupation in the world" thing... 36 styles of danger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drgnslyer Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 *resurects the thread from the bowels of the beast*air traffic controller takes the cake for stress *in high volume airports, not dinky little airstrips*I read *i'm sure it was Time Mag.* that high volume line cook was #2 on the list for stressful jobs, behind air traffic controller....which I can see, I spent a few years in the industry...left it for that reason..discovered I can sell...and decided to make more money, in a controlled environment, and not burn myself on a daily basis while getting yelled at by the chef for minimum wage Think before you act, but act before it's too late.http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/3535/siggydemo58lq.jpg(Images aren't allowed, but if you want, take a peek for yourself ^ ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronWarrior Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 On a daily basis probably a police officer, then a firefighter, a soldier 'when they go to war' and anything in the heavy industrial field 'ironworkers' e.t.c.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAZ Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 How about a fulltime mom of 3 homeschooled children. Never gets a break. Always being hounded and followed around all day. And for no pay! A mother's love is amazing. "Blessed be the Lord my Rock, and my keen and firm Strength, Who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight."

Sohan Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I know this is old, but I'm surprised nobody said inner-city middle school teacher. My ex's mother worked at one of the toughest schools around. She quit the day a child urinated on her desk to protest a poor homework grade.Respectfully,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."
