Where Not To Apply For Your Next Job
You can name any number of places you would like to work
, many new careers you would love to explore. This is especially true if you have been out of work for any amount of time. Personally, at my age the first listing of jobs I would read is the one showing the most dangerous jobs in America. You can find lists which were put together by various groups, Government agencies, Major newspapers and the Insurance industry. Each list will be somewhat different, but there are some commonalities, some occupations appearing on each and every one.When you read these lists, the majority of the jobs designated as dangerous make common sense. In fact, should you not find certain occupations listed, you might doubt the veracity of the other information. A couple of examples would be Police officers and firefighters. These individuals are first responders who risk their lives each and every day to protect the rest of us. Regardless of the safety equipment at their disposal, many are severely injured or killed in the line of duty each year. Although salaries for these professionals might be slightly higher than other occupations in many areas of the country, these professionals would still do their jobs and risk their lives for much less.
Typically, you will find Commercial fishermen and some other Maritime industry workers among the most dangerous. When you consider the hazards these individuals face while doing their jobs, it is easy to understand why thy made the top ten or twenty most dangerous. Miners also made the list. Again, the hazards involved working in the underground environment and its risks easily make it a dangerous occupation. Construction workers face many types of hazards, dangers, which can easily cause severe injury or loss of life.
One occupation making the Top 10, and Top 20 most dangerous occupation, was farming. Their mortality rate per 100,000 is 35.8. When I first saw it listed, I was somewhat surprised. Coming from a Midwestern state, I always knew farming was very hard work with extremely long hours. Yet, I don't know if I actually considered farming to be dangerous. According to the article, the danger comes into play when you consider the number of farmers pinned by overturned tractors, injuries caused by augers used to handle grain and collisions occurring on the road due to slow moving equipment.
In my earlier days, actually my much earlier days, I went through a period of unemployment. Looking back I now realize it didn't last very long although at the time it seemed like I would never find employment again. One day I met a gentleman in a coffee shop who seemed very friendly. The discussion moved to jobs. He said he was a supervisor with a company performing equipment maintenance for several local businesses. He told me he had an opening on his crew and would be willing to consider hiring me. The hourly rate was thirty-five dollars per hour and there was plenty of work. I was excited until I learned the work was replacing bulbs on Microwave towers. You know, I didn't see that job on any list.
