The Most Stressful Jobs of 2011

While the media proved to have several of the most stressful jobs on the list, the top spot went to commercial pilots, who must endure the difficult combination of having to work long, irregular hours and the pressure of keeping passengers safe while ensuring that flights run on time. Take a look at the list of Top 10 most stressful jobs in 2011 below: 

1. Commercial Airline Pilot

2. Public Relations Executive

3. Corporate Executive, Senior

4. Photojournalist

5. Newscaster

6. Advertising Account Executive

7. Architect

8. Stockbroker

9. Emergency Medical Technician

10. Real Estate Agent
Needless to say though, even the least stressful jobs still carry some stress, and anyone in the workforce will likely scoff at the idea that their job is significantly less stressful than others on the list. Indeed, some 70% of employees say their career is the main source of stress in their life, according to one study cited by Careercast.

Gas Prices Begin to Drop!

Gas prices have finally began to drop after their peak last-week. "The national average price dropped half a cent Monday from Sunday's level and now stands at $3.96 for a gallon of regular gasoline, according to the AAA Daily Fuel Gauge Report. That's the fourth drop in a row after the price hit a high of more than $3.98 on May 6. Average prices fell in every state Monday, led by 3 cent drops in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin." How far prices will go down is anybody's guess in the wake of last week's sharp sell-off in oil and other commodities and the fact that Gas prices typically go down in June. We are in for down slopping ride hopefully! For a free insurance quote visit our website today at www.kimberleyvassal.com
