All Stressed Up

The ever-helpful folks at Yahoo! have decided to publish a list of "low-stress" jobs for all the overworked people out there.

Some of the recommendations: Pre-school teacher, nursing, financial planner, and help-desk support.

Uhh... WHAT?!

Here, let me try:

What you need to define a low stress job is some task that requires no math ability and a very limited knowledge base, one where you can make stuff up whenever you feel like it. A job that entails no real responsibility and you can spout your opinion while getting paid for it. A job where actual facts are irrelevant to how you work. A job where nothing you do really matters a twat, so why worry about doing it right.

Now I wonder what job fits that description...?
