Jobs Less Stressful Than "Disc Jockey" Include TSA Worker and Running a Nuclear Power Plant
Have you seen the report on the most stressful jobs in America? The Department of Labor ranked them according to how common high-stress situations and high-stakes decisions are.
"Urologist" is #1. Then it's film and video editors . . . anesthesiologist assistants . . . judges . . . and telephone operators. Or if you're looking for the LEAST stressful job in the world, be a messenger or courier.
The fun part of a list like this is seeing where your OWN job ranks. And according to the results, WE have a pretty stressful job. Of the 873 jobs listed, "radio disc jockey" is 145th. So what we do is more stressful than 83% of jobs.
Here are a few jobs that are LESS stressful than disc jockey: Store security guard . . . embalming dead bodies . . . airline pilot . . . border patrol agent . . . TSA agent . . . disaster response coordinator . . . captain of a boat . . . drive-thru worker . . .
Someone who handles and detonates EXPLOSIVES. (???) And finally, operating a NUCLEAR POWER PLANT is slightly less stressful than what we're doing right now.
