Since 1995, a small team of two doctoral students at the University of Wisconsin, headed by career book author Les Krantz, have been putting together a list of America’s best and worst jobs. They’ve come up with a formula that takes into account a range of considerations, from what they call emotional factors like the degree of competitiveness and the amount of public contact (both viewed as negatives), to physical demands including crawling, stooping and bending and work conditions like toxic fumes and noise. In addition to income and growth potential in the field, they look at what they call stress factors, like the amount of travel the job requires, deadlines, and physical risks like whether the workers’ or their colleagues’ lives are put at risk on the job.
Broadcaster ranks just worst than a Head Cook..and just better than a Taxi Driver.
