Need Not Apply

As a preventative measure, I did some research and came across the Top Ten Worst Careers in America as compiled by CareerCast.  The career advice site based the list on five factors: physical demands, work environment, income, stress and hiring outlook.

10. Broadcaster
9. Butcher
8. Dishwasher
7. Meter Reader
6. Waiter/Waitress
5. Newspaper Reporter
4. Oil Rig Worker
3. Military Soldier
2. Dairy Farmer
1. Lumberjack
