Are You in a Stressful Job that Pays Badly?

Are You in a Stressful Job that Pays Badly?

I just found this interesting article from CNN about 15  stressful jobs that pay badly. The article profiled the most overworked and underpaid professions out there.

These results are according to a survey conducted by PayScale:

  1. Social Worker
  2. Special Events Coordinator
  3. Probation/Parole Officer
  4. News Reporter
  5. Music Ministry Director
  6. Membership Manager
  7. Fundraiser
  8. Commercial Photographer
  9. Assisted Living Direcor
  10. Minister
  11. Marriage/Family Therapist
  12. Curator
  13. Substance Abuse Counselor
  14. Film/TV Producer
  15. High School Teacher

You know, it's sad that people in these professions don't get nearly enough for the time and work they spend in their chosen career, especially when just about every company or firm in these career fields actually generates quite a bit of revenue on an annual basis. These professions should pay at least $80K a year, but sadly they do not.

Check out the article to find out the pay scale and the percentage of those in each profession responding in the affirmative that they are overworked and underpaid.
