LT Chris Summers with the Tallahassee Police Department, "A lot of times it's the fact that a lot of situations uniform patrol officers are involved in have an element of unknown. And for anybody when they walk into unknown situation, it's going to rise your stress levels."
A few of the least stressful jobs according to health magazine were therapists, natural scientists, and sales representatives.

This is not a competition rather a way to be informed. If you are not confident and knowlegable in your job then you will be "stressed" no matter what job you have. Stress is just a way to say that in ones opinion you have several details to handle. I am a pilot and have hundreds/thousands of peoples lives in my hand every time I take off. This is not stressfull to me. I am confident in my understanding of my job. If having peoples lives in your hands is "stressfull" then you have no business being in that career choice. Stress is only what you percieve to be a difficult issue in your life. Everyone must deal with their insecurities in their knowledge of their duties. Go learn more, get confident, and do something you enjoy. You all know what is involved with your career before you get in it. Ignorance is no excuse in this day and age.
Try being a Home-Health Caregiver.
Why is everyone competing for the title Most Stressful Job as if that is something to be proud of. If you win the title, it won't make you less stressed, so can't we agree that perhaps most people are stressed more or less. I believe that most careers are going to produce some level of stress which is somewhat normal. It helps with productivity (unless the stress causes debilitating anxiety that is impairing your performance). If one doesn't feel any level of stress at work, then I don't think that is a good thing either. Stop bragging- we are all stressed! :-)
