STRESSFUL JOBS

I found an article listing 8 jobs that the author considered stressful. I don’t want to demean anyone’s job…all have some validity to someone...but a few other jobs come to mind that weren't listed.

WORKING SINGLE MOTHER
While at work, they worry about their child(ren)... they worry about the cost of daycare... they are exhausted at being a parent and bread winner. Some may even have to work multiple jobs just to make ends meet. Their thoughts range from...do they pay the bills or spend time with the kids. Worse yet, what bill do I pay, and which one do I not. You can't tell me they aren't stressed.

CONSTRUCTION
With the shape of our economy, we’re afraid to start new building for fear of losing our own job and not being able to complete it. Many electricians, ironworkers, framers, anyone with connections to the construction industry, have either lost their jobs or those jobs are few and far between. There is no less stress for them than any other.

THE REST OF US
For too many, we are out of a job or within a bad day of being out of one. There is stress of how to pay bills, will we lose our car, will we lose our house.

It is a stressful time for all of us. Whether we have a job...and especially if we don't.

I struggle to limit it to a few.

It’s all relative. When you are the one affected...it is a stressful time.
