Title: Worst job in the USA
Post by: Southside on April 16, 2014, 02:57:19 PM
Watching the news this morning and they reported that according to some annual ranking being a lumberjack is the worst job in the US in 2014, of course they also said being enlisted was the third worst job, and being a mathematician was the best job, ever try building a porch or wiping your butt with algebra while dodging an IED? Not sure if its funny or scary how folks view the world these days. 

Well lunch is over, time to go skip and jump while singing "I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK....."

Worst or most dangerous?I would much rather spend my work days in the woods than any office anywhere.I couldn`t imagine being a burger flipper is a better job than logging.

Probably would say the best job (most dollar return for physical effort) would be selling dope.

Who goes by "lumberjack" anyway???....no lumber until after it's had a go round at the mill.
