don’t forget about the guy who figured out how to automate the entire process of creating a video that gets its script from reddit narrated by an AI voice on a random gaming clip.
Ikr I was thinking that too, youtube automation might be the move😂
The voice is AI? I couldn't tell. Another reminder that AI is a scary thing.
i found this video really cancerous to be honest.
listen to the tonation at 19:35... I don't think that's AI
@@basi21 ye thats definitely not AI
I'm poor and overworked. Got it. Thanks youtube recommendations
What’s your current life situation?
Same. I’m currently picking up a 4th job…and still can’t pay the bills. It’s hard being a single person who has to pay EVERY bill 100% by yourself with no roommates, assistance etc as of course…paying $1600 in rent every month completely by myself and I can’t relocate…
@@babyg7796 same boat . It’s like idk what to do or what I want to do I just don’t want to just be surviving anymore. I’d like a real job
@@babyg7796 1600 a month? Damn. Where do you live
@@xmuzel I just moved from FL to the DMV…the prices are about the same everywhere around the country so unless you’re living with friends family or roommates…that’s how much you’ll be paying as a single person
Watching this it feels like there are a few common direction :
1- people working for large very profitable sector (oil and gaz, pharma)
2- people working in smaller company with good management that actually care about people.
4- job that have specific hours requirements on emergency / time sensitive industry for which company is required to have extra capacity
5- specific technical niches.
It also depends a lot on personality and experience. I had a temporal contract with a small european company that gave amazing treatment and facilites to it's employees, good salaries too. I loved to work there, best job I've ever had. They didn't have the budget to renew my contract so I had to leave (I was 21 year old graphic designer and this was a renewable energies company, so I was not as essential as the engineers, for example). Yet some people around their 30's with permanent contracts there who got paid twice as much as I did, quit months after, because the job didn't fulfill them or the paid was not enough for them anymore. Keep in mind that I come from a working class family while most of the people there came from middle-upper class
There is no 3.
3 would be things that workers cant be exposed to for long period of time, thus leading to shorter hours, like radiation.
Nuclear industry worker also seems to be high-valued, especially in the medical sector.
@@alsparkproductions7849 Low Stress but high risk. Well, I am not sure, if you can see that as low stress.
I'm a unionized security guard for a major auto company. I make a decent living just driving a company car for eight hours a day. I'm 60 years old and it perfect for me. ❤️
Lmao no wonder why people are robbing those place
Where is this auto company located? (So I can rob this place)

You're killin it man. You've figured it out. Respect.
Unionization ftw
Watching this, I just realized....I've never had a low stress job in my life....time to rethink my career strategy.

teaching abroad, china is the least stress wit most pay
@@irinaparent9066what?
@@Paramitacdewitheres a huge niche of teaching Chinese how to speak English online. I remember it starting around 5 years back when Work From Home really started to take off and it paid super well

I work as an analyst for a pharmacy insurance company. Pretty much I ensure letters that are sent to members contain accurate information. So its a lot of speed reading and is repetitive but I find it relaxing. Huge perk is I work full time from home, listen to youtube while I work, don't deal with the public, have a small team, & we mainly communicate via IM. It is the ideal job for an introvert such as myself. 😊
Where do I find a job like this and what education was required?
@@NJHC21 that's what I was going to ask
Also curious

Let's be honest was he going to get any other kind of job lol
I think a job being stressful depends a lot on
1. The company that's hiring you / work environment
2. Personality
I've quit jobs that were extremely stressing for me but my colleagues couldn't empathize with it since they were doing just fine, and vise versa. Or found that the same exact job is a lot more stressing in a company while it is ok in another.
Thanks for saying this! I've been feeling guilty about leaving job when I didn't have ANY money to live on, but the job was sucking the life out of me, and giving me panic attacks, which was not shared by my co-workers. I still haven't managed to find another job, but nothing is constant.
Yeah 100%, I’ve worked in tech for every job I’ve had and everywhere I’ve worked there’s always been those that struggle, just don’t have that intuitive understanding when troubleshooting issues, I’ve found it’s usually due to poor training but it’s definitely got a strong personality aspect to it, some people naturally learn it without trying and others can’t keep a hold of the basics- I imagine it’s the same for most other industries
I think personality is a huge factor. Some of these jobs would be super stressful to me. I'd absolutely hate to live on a boat and play video games all day, or deal with farming accidents, or deal with radiation or nuclear energy. It depends on introversion, extraversion, energy levels, if you have any mental or physical health conditions to manage, whether you're good under pressure or not, your natural talents ie maths, science, art etc, if you are a people person or prefer to work quietly alone, plus your boss and colleagues. I'm in the UK and our salaries are much lower than this for almost all jobs, so most of us also have the added stress and resentment of low pay and high living costs unless you're a lawyer, accountant, banker or experienced IT worker.
thats me. Everytime i work in retail i only last a max of 6 months. Im really shy and introverted so all that interaction is overwhelming af
im currently looking for a “career” type job now and im scared that i’ll start to get overwhelmed bc then i will quit
CNC operator/programmer. Depending on the company, it can be (and usually is) the literal definition of a no stress, little work/high pay job.
1. pay is always good, in my case it is 4,800 EUR monthly pay which is way, way, way above average in my country (and I'm getting a mandatory government issued pay raise in March, on top of the 20% raise my boss just gave me in August last year)
2. if you wish to work overtime, it is always paid at a minimum of 170% rate per hour or if you find a nice firm/company to work for, it's usually 200% or more, ours is at 200%.
3. most, close to all, companies/firms have 5 work day weeks, with optional Saturdays and if you choose to go to work on one or more Saturdays, you will usually get paid the same rate as overtime or even higher. Ours is 200%.
4. most, close to all companies/firms will give you 50-150 EUR (or more) pay bonuses for... Well... For completely random stuff, haha.
5. in most companies/firms, you get 50% of you monthly pay as a bonus every easter.
6. in most companies/firms, you get 80-100% of you monthly pay as a bonus every Christmas.
7. in most companies/firms, you will get that famous 13th pay at the end of each year on top of your normal monthly pay, which in other jobs you usually get the 13th pay only if you work for a really, really nice company/firm.
8. you basically work only 50% of the time you're at work. you put XYZ piece in the machine or write a program or do both and then you're free to do whatever the hell you want for the next 20, 30, 40 minutes or an hour or longer, depending on how long it takes for the machine to do the piece.
9. in my case specifically, every wednesday and friday, a week before the day of, we have someone picked at random to make lunch for everyone that friday or wednesday, at 12:00 and the best part is that drinking alcohol is allowed. in short, basically we don't go to the usual 30min lunch break and instead have 6 hour work days with lunch and drinks for everyone, 2 days every week.
10. in my case specifically, we get 21 days collective vacation every summer and every winter. (3 weeks summer, 3 weeks winter) in other words 42 days of paid leave a year aka. over a month of paid vacation time every year, which is more than most people get, including people in even higher paying ''better'' jobs. although, i know CNC operators from other firms who get even more paid leave per year.
11. bosses/CEOs in these branches of work are usually really laid back, chill and down to earth type of people, making the whole experience of working this job even less stressful. for example, just before christmas, we had a fresh, new guy come in not even 2 hours into his very first day, writing a program wrong, making a huge crash in a $350,000 machine, causing a total of $52k damage to the machine and our boss just came down with hands in his pockets, looked at the guy panicking left and right and just told him to relax its not a big deal and to take the day off and to be more careful next time, all while smiling and not giving a single damn about what just happened.
I own a small window and gutter cleaning company. It’s not unusual for me to show up to someone’s home, work for 4 hours and leave with $300-$500. I make my own schedule, listen to podcasts while working and live a great life that supports my family. Honestly if more people knew how great it was so many would do it.
that sounds awesome man! how’d you start?
^^^
I have a small cleaning company. Same thing, so easy. Hardest part is finding new employees. I have 4 employees and rarely actually clean. Mostly I do some paperwork and payroll a few hours, move employees to the next job, and play video games. I probably work 20 hours a week and make about $80k after paying taxes and payroll. Maybe $120k gross income.
@@Variety_Pack it’s a wonderful life!
@@theyopo3426 I bought the truck and basic supplies from my previous employer, got a business license and then for three weeks went door to door hanging door hangers.

massive thanks ✨
Would be great if there are time stamps 😺
Thank you so much! I was hoping a position I want to get in the near future was on this list and it is😊
You forgot personal assistant to an estate agent
I do pest control. Once your good at its low stress. I visit 15 homes a day and usually just preventive spraying. I work for 20-30 mins and then drive for 20-30 minutes and listen to music/podcast. My company hired me from a minimum wage job and now I’m making 85k+ a year. They changed my life!
Not to mention at the end of the month when work is slow I can go and do sales door to door and make sales commission. We have smoke guys making 120k+
i worked for mosquito authority for a season. averaged about 10-15 houses a day at 11.5 comp per unit are you making similar or more?
@@pedroquan2497 I’m doing general pest/ and termite for Terminix. On GP I make about 16-18 per unit at 10 a day. For Termite bait scans I make 30 per house. Usually about 3-5 a day.
@@Yorelz no wonder. pest control is great but the company u work for plays a big part
@@pedroquan2497 definitely does. Worth shopping around for a good company once you have the experience.
Crane operator. Learning the job is stressful. Now that I've learned it is very easy, pretty much stress free. I don't work hard, the crane does the heavy lifting. 130k/year.
I was a crane operator on a drillship. Shit was stressful.
Lots of stairs and carry your lunch up the steps. No restroom break.
Honestly how much time do you actually spend operating the crane?
@@twizack I'll admit the cranes I was operating. Its called seatrax. They are short. No long stairs. Usually 4 on the deck. The hard part was moving personel onto a moving oil rig from a boat in a safety basket. The waves of the ocean make your load shift and tilt if it's not fully hoisted off the ground.
Hell yeah same here , where you working out of
@@someguyfromtheinternet5102 Do you need any papers/ license/ diplomas for this job? Is it like a forklift where you only get it if you get recommended by the company so they send you to do forklift seminars?
I make $80k a year salary along with $10k in bonuses for a total of $90k a year. I work as a Manager for a smaller cell phone company. Came in as tech support, then specialized tech support after 1 year, then supervisor 6 months after that, then Manager 6 months after that. Super low stress running a team, yes we have numbers to meet but everyone is an adult so they know and I never micro manage, just let everyone do their thing as long as the numbers look good.
No degree, no prior experience, just got on during a good time of company growth and showed up to work everyday.
@LeonL47 Just make stuff up and get people you know to be your references and to back up what you have said.
Use real businesses or even better, get a friend with a business to say you worked there..
Easy..
If you left previous jobs under negative circumstances then make sure your reference is someone in the business that will talk you up.. or get a coworker you are friendly with and put their role down as your supervisor. They already know what is involved and can just be honest about your role whilst talking you up a bit.
Problem solved.. I've done both.. I finally realised I'm better off just starting my own business. I was the first one hired and my boss is me so I tend to get what I want. Lol
Timing is key.
No degree and no prior experience? What country is this? In my country, a company literally needs a fvcking degree just to be cashier in a small grocery stalls 😂
@@Raymart6543 let me guess.. you're from philippines, right? haha
@@Raymart6543 That's happening everywhere in the first world. It's the natural byproduct of flooding a market with a resource (formal education). It's called inflation.
I went from being a pharmacy technician to a laboratory technician in a small lab. The reduction in my stress levels has improved so much of my life.
I work at hospital second shift and we usually are glued to the phones watching youtube or Netflix.
I want to get in the medical field just need to find the right career I just recently started out at as Dietary Aide something to get my foot in the door for the healthcare field. I'm either thinking Medical Radiology Technologist or Lab Technician.
@@sithqueengigi588 lab technician you will handle a lot of pee
There is high demand for lab techs and it’s less stress.
I'll look into it. I wanted to be a Forensic Lab Technician but I don't feel like getting a Bachelor's degree anytime soon.
My dad works for the federal government in Canada and he said he probably does 3 hours of honest work in a week. I went with him for Take Your Kid to Work Day, and we literally didn't do any work, we just went and met everyone in his office, went for a walk around town, and to get coffee a few times. You would not believe his salary.
oop thats where my tax money went
What's his job called?
What does he has to do when he honestly works?
@@jiousen I think it's better I don't say.
@@jiousen and yet the government hardly wants to spend any money helping actual hard working people :/
@@MrNommerz say it
I work as a postman. Walk anywhere from 10k-30k steps a day. Gives me a good excuse to stay in shape, pays well enough and I work down the street from the house I grew up in. I’m not stressed at all
@@Navi405 From what I’ve learned, you’d have to be working for usps for 5-10 years before you make a solid amount. Could be different for individuals & areas of the US.
Glad it treats you well! Yes, it can be good for some people, I think it depends on the city, the management, etc. I think it's better now, but when COVID hit and people ordered their dog food, toilet paper, bottled water and kitty litter (along with other things) from Amazon instead of driving the 3 miles to Walmart, it was miserable. If the office you are in doesn't have the manpower (i.e. a weekend sub who jumps from route to route on Fridays and Saturdays), you work 6 days a week, every week. So long story short? lol, its better if you can do it in a city that already has an amazon fulfilment center that delivers, instead of you.
How many hours do you work?
@@theastrogoth8624 when I was with them, 48 to 60 hours a week. But again that was covid, so around 300 packages delivered a day. It died down so it's not as bad now. It's been 2 years since I was with them.
You'd probably be stressed if you were MY mail carrier. Been in an ongoing fued with the man since I moved in to this apartment because he wont take all the mail in my mailbox for former tenants that ive refused delivery on. Then he calls my landlords and complains that my tiny little mailbox is full and he can no longer deliver other people's mail. Then I call the post office and complain about the mail, he gets sent out to take the mail, and then the cycle starts all over again.
The day I started ignoring my coworkers and only interacting with them for work reasons while just focusing on work the better my days become. People bring their stress from home with them and quite honestly I don’t care about their drama. I realized I’m paid to be around them and started acting accordingly. They are not your friends.
Great comment. I struggle with this sometimes as well. Most of the people I work with I am just fundamentally incompatible with but they want to hang out outside of work. It took me a long time unfortunately to figure out that you shouldn’t make coworkers your friends. Hope you all are doing well.
@@RscottphillipsI disagree. Anyone can be a friend. At the end of the day, they're a regular person just like you. You just happen to have the same job.
I try to do this, but unfortunately one of my coworkers can't help but drag you into his drama. It was so peaceful this past week when he was on vacation.
I've learned how to do this as well.
I’m the night guard at a Mega Pizzaplex. It pays a little better due to the late hours, but the animatronic characters are pretty awesome to me, though they tend to get a bit quirky at night.
They used to despise me, except for the bear who was always cool to me, but after beating the chicken at the maze attraction, the gator at mini golf, the wolf at go-kart racing (the company rebuilt the track), and all four of them at laser tag, they left me alone after that and even became my friends along with the bear.
Or you could have found a way to keep those damn doors closed for all five nights.
Lmaoo that's so good
Byeee 🤣
Ngl, had me in the first half
HEY GREGORY, DID THE BEAT GO OFF?
I’m an licensed vocational nurse. Most nursing jobs are stressful, but I do home health. I get paid 47$ an hour to sit in mansions in LA and give people their medicine.
wow just wow
@@delanescott7872 yeah but that’s not a lot in California. I’ll never be able to own a home or retire. So I’m poor.
Me too but for peds
I'm an archaeologist who monitors construction sites. If you are on top of your paperwork and don't mind getting muddy from time to time it can be an incredibly low stress and fun job! You don't need a graduate degree to do it either. I've met people without degrees who have learned field skills from volunteering and field schools. I live comfortably in Downtown Los Angeles. Don't give up hope folks, you can achieve your dreams. Keep your head up and don't settle!!

What certificates did you need?
i got a degree, and i'm still unemployed damn; i've been considering other careers at this point. how did you apply for this job??
@@drvren030Whay did youvget your degree in?
I make almost $19 just sitting at home on my computer waiting for calls to come in. This is for Medicare so our busy seasons are pretty much from October to the end in March but the rest of the year..its pretty silent. For example, last year, I went MONTHS without having ANY calls to take. It's great and very low stress. I pretty much get paid to do my hair, play my playstation and watch TV all day.
Which dept I need a new job🤣?
Tell me more I’m interested 🤣
Are you signing retires for Medicare? Because I've done this before and if you're signing them up this shit is stressful. Difference is you're working at home while I had to work in a call center and when the busy season came around it's so loud the customer on the phone can't even hear you and you get yelled at by old people who have been on the phone for hours and are angry with you for having to do this whole process while you're out of breath reading them this damn long script that you forget wth you're even reading and realize that your talking words. 😓 I once put a customer on hold for some reason I can't remember and the customer that was being rude to me only moments before started breaking down crying not knowing that I could hear her and her husband in the back ground. It was heartbreaking 💔 fuk that job
@Miles Morra omg I'm so sorry that was your experience! My program is brand new, it's only been around for a couple of years, so we aren't nearly as busy as bigger/older programs but during AEP it can get really hectic but not as hectic as what you described
$19 isn't that much, what like $2300 a month?
I consider my salary good because I'm part time (15 hr/week) and it's a small non-profit
I was nervous to go into retail but I ADORE this job! Even if it can be a bit mundane at times, my coworkers and management are genuinely good people who really care about their employees.

I´m an interpreter. I work from home and I just have to sit 6 hours a day just repeating like a parrot what other people say. It´s only a bit stressful if one of the parties doesn´t know how to explain themselves, but nothing horrible. In American money, it´s an extremely low income: 450 dollars per month in average. But where I´m from it´s a fkn fortune, I get around 150k of my country´s currency. I spend around 35k in expenses, internet, phone and all that, and maybe add another 30k for food during the whole month. The rest goes all to my pocket. Best job ever. I finally could afford my dreamed gaming PC thanks to this job 😀
Bro, find something else. 450$ is nothing.
@@theloniouscovers5426 Again, I´m not American. Due to the coin exchange in my country, I earn more than I need to spend. Not rich, but extremely comfortable.
Where are you living with such low cost of living?
I work min wage part time and I at least make 11k a year. Or 900-1k a month
What country are you in
I do data entry. Not amazing pay but very low stress, good benefits and i listen to audio books and CZcams while i work all day. Also work from home
Tips to get started?
Medical data entry pays great. You should consider it as they typically don't require medical experience, just data entry.
Do you get health insurance for it?
@@Rubyoreo yes
dude which comapny? i am starting college next month so would like to make some quick buck part time work from home.
Working a fast food job and hearing this makes me realize I have a long way to go. With it being my first job, I was surprised at how incredibly easy it was to get (you literally just walk up and apply, and then give a very short interview), and it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it, but since we're understaffed it can be very stressful, especially around noon. The worst part is having to clean after other people's junk, or having to prep meals when it's packed. Salary is just above minimum wage, and you don't get paid for breaks (even though they're mandatory) so I can't say it's fancy, but it's definitely the fastest way to get a job if you have no prior experience and want some quick cash. 75k for driving a truck still sounds like a dream compared to it
Hey bro, warehouse jobs are VERY easy to obtain. Especially Amazon Fulfillment centers (aka warehouses). I work at Amazon. There was no job interview, just background check and drug test (mouth swab). I thought grocery stores and restraunts were my only option buts it’s not. I personally really enjoy it and I’m not nearly as stressed. Not dealing with people and just doing your job is great. Def pays more than minimum wage
@@ClipsofFury Sounds like an ideal job for me, my only issue is I hate commuting since I am a newbie driver.
@@derpherp1810 you can’t be scared forever lol all drivers you see on the road felt that originally but none of them do now. Driving becomes second nature and very boring once you get used to it/get a little older. Don’t rush it though
@@ClipsofFury Yeah I guess, I just hope in the future we can build cities better. Large communal arcologies with easily acessible public transportation and no cars.
@@derpherp1810 that’d be so freaking dope! I want to visit Europe bc it’s basically what you just described. I’m sure you knew already. Reducing dependence on oil would create a lot of freedom
I guess I fall into this list too.
I'm an auditor for the DCAA, Defense Contract Auditing Agency, which is technically a part of the DOD (so I'm a federal employee). I started in January after graduating college as an accounting major. I currently make $46k per year not including benefits which isn't a whole lot, but in 3 years I'll be promoted to a point where I'll be making $80k in a non-supervisory role. The promotions are guaranteed as long as I am not fired too, but after that the promotions become competitive.
Instead of auditing ordinary people like the IRS, I audit defense contractors who sell their products to the military like Boeing or Lockheed Martin. I'm essentially making sure tax payer money doesn't go down the toilet, something I can get behind easily compared to auditing for the IRS.
The work pace is mostly consistent throughout the year unless a big due date is coming up. DCAA prioritizes work life balance, so they give us lots of leave hours, allow teleworking, and are very flexible with coming up with a weekly work schedule. I've chosen to work everyday 6:30 to 3:00, so everyday I get off relatively early.
This is probably a perk of my specific office: but I actually _like_ my coworkers. We joke, we laugh, we're productive and mostly know what we're doing, and there's no real office drama to speak of (so far). The work itself is light as of now since I'm still new and I would hate to be doing this work completely on my own, but the people and the pay and the fact that I don't _have_ to get a CPA license with this job make it worth it.
Nice !! c:
It's not really what you do, it's WHERE you are. I've been in the same industry for years - some jobs were blissfully low stress, some were nightmares. It really depends on the company, location, and especially the management.

(3 weeks summer, 3 weeks winter) in other words 42 days of paid leave a year aka. over a month of paid vacation time every year, which is more than most people get, including people in even higher paying ''better'' jobs. although, i know CNC operators from other firms who get even more paid leave per year.
11. bosses/CEOs in these branches of work are usually really laid back, chill and down to earth type of people, making the whole experience of working this job even less stressful. for example, just before christmas, we had a fresh, new guy come in not even 2 hours into his very first day, writing a program wrong, making a huge crash in a $350,000 machine, causing a total of $52k damage to the machine and our boss just came down with hands in his pockets, looked at the guy panicking left and right and just told him to relax its not a big deal and to take the day off and to be more careful next time, all while smiling and not giving a single damn about what just happened.
Physcian Assistant here $60/hr. Work for the VA doing disability exams for vets. I work 3 days a week about 24hrs total. I don't do any care plans or treat. Just examine and report to the VA. Very chill. Love my coworkers and I get to help vets. PA is a time and money investment up front but once you're through school there are lots of jobs you can make a decent living for low hours a week.
Edit: $60/hr is actually petty low for a PA but give how relaxed my job is its great for me and I only have 4-5 patients a day.
I would like to do this, how would I get this kind of job?
I'm also a PA who does independent medical opinions for vets. I get about $100 an hour to write a letter saying their medical conditions are related to their military service. No seeing patients, no prescribing or treatments, and I get to work fully remote
I am a self employed tai chi teacher… I work 14 hours a week teaching people Tai chi and meditation I make about 150,000 a year gross, and those 14 hours a week I teach is set by myself and when I want a vacation I just tell my students I will be gone a couple of weeks and when so get back we will do a week or 2 of makeup classes so my vacation is paid by me working 20 hours instead of 14. I am friends with most of my students we learn a lot from each other and there is absolutely no stress compared to “job”
Haha good for you. We aren't all so talented as to convince even a single 4yr old to come to us 😂
Wow, what a peaceful and rewarding job! Thanks for sharing. Do you have your own studio location, or do you teach at various places?
@@llkg9 both… I have a studio… but branch out and teach in other places to increase my network and visibility
CAN I TAG ALONG
This is the dream buddy! Congratulations! Wish I could join you. I gotta wonder where you are and what clientele you have that that it adds up so good.
I've definitely considered teaching myself, but I haven't had too much luck with it. I'm not really into the new age hippy dippy stuff. Fist is fist after all! For meditation you can do something much simpler. So I've been avoiding leaning into that angle. Not wanting to water down the art into just arm waving and wishful thinking.
But Taijiquan is definitely hard to market as a martial art. The real stuff is scary! Even if you try to teach it as gently as possible. The people willing to put up with scary don't find Tai Chi sexy enough to practice, and the people that find Tai Chi attractive tend to be afraid of momentum of any kind. I can understand being afraid of being struck, but if you can't even lever them around any, then what skill will we ever achieve?
I'm a "supply systems analyst" for the government. It's pretty much the same logistics work I was doing in the military, but pretty much 0 stress, good pay and benefits, and it's the first job I can truly say I enjoy.
How much do you make ?
What do you do in that job?
As a Custodian making way less than average, I find my job less stressful depending on what school I’m at. I work in the evenings from 2:30-11pm and no one is around to bother me. All it takes is 2-4 hours of work then after that I eat my dinner and learn how to day trade in the mean time.
I am applying for a summer student position job as a custodian! I really hope to get the job and have it be a similar experience to yours! my hours would be 4:30pm-12:00 and having no one around sounds so relaxing
@@adina6255 nice with me I try to do the bare minimum and use my free time to get homework done or learning more about day trading. Perfect job for me. 😁
I'm currently working as a cleaner at hospital on an overnight shift scrolling through CZcams.
Get your work done than chill for a bit. No one around to bug you. Pay isn't great but decent.
@@CountryLifestyle2023 as long as you’re not stressed then life’s good 👍
@briandprice1_ Yeah no, I might slack a bit when it's slow, things are done. But naw never leave lol
Im in hospital security. The only stressful part is hearing my coworkers complain about needing to get off their chairs to unlock a door or to deal with a psych patient. I work 3 days a week, own a home, a car and have a little side hustle (renting out my garage for play money and selling things on ebay). My life is GREAT, no kids, never married.
Man I started working in hospital security last month and it's the most chill job I've ever had, I love it
I worked hospital security and it sucked! The work was great, it was the managers.
You must be in a nice area! I did this back in the 90s in a very rough part of London and it was bloody dangerous. One of my colleagues was almost killed after being stabbed. Terrible pay too.
Hospital security doesn’t pay much how did you get a home
He probably lives in an affordable Area like Cleveland or Bakersfield. I just applied to a Hospital as a Security Guard. My family's mortgage here in Inland Empire, California is 1600 a month the pay rate is up to $25/hour for the hospital which isn't bad and can pay the mortgage making $4000 a month@@Duran762
Oh man, I’m also a truck driver & I couldn’t agree more. You have no idea the lengths people will go to get in front of a truck, regardless of you speed relative to other traffic.
I've seen the videos, people get of checkbracking the hell out of every trucker on sight.
What? Why will people try to get infront of a huge truck?? I try to drive AWAY from trucks! I guess some people like to live on the edge !!!😂
@@dorisnamondo97 The general perception that all big trucks are slow. Now to be fair, even as a truck driver. Man some guys are f*cking slow! But I mean I could be doing 70 mph down the highway keeping up with traffic in front of me & people still want in front. Feels like vehicular racism.
@@CoordinatedCarryTruckists 😂
I drive otr for a living, in my little Honda. I seen the way people drive around semis, it's insane. I thought about transitioning because I know you guys make better money, but there's no freaking way. I would lose my cool and die from stress. God bless you guys lol
I'm a mechanic who works on food packaging machinery. Most days things at the plant are chill unless there is a major breakdown which is rare. The only stressful part of my day is driving to work. I don't make insane money, but more than enough to be comfortable. I feel blessed.
As a High School Senior, making $17.50 an hour as a Lifeguard and Pool Operator at a single-guard pool where barely anybody comes is nice.
I’m a Navy Yeoman and spend my days writing letters and correspondence. I have a software engineering degree so I’ve managed to automate nearly 90% of my tasks. The only thing that causes hiccups are when other people do their jobs wrong, which is rare. Healthcare, housing and groceries are covered 100% and I bring home about $7k/mo.
Enlist or Officer?

Hopefully I’m able to get where you’re at one day. I’m a YN2 (just frocked) I’ve never been on a deployment. Pay is way better right?
I relate to the person who points out that boredom too can be exhausting. The Personal assistant and the collage dorm desk organizer have the best jobs, in my view --lots of good interaction and positive impact on other people, plenty to do, but little take-home work and no periods of intense stress all the time at work. Many people would balk at the EMS guy who says he gets to be rather lazy in his work, but, frankly, when yo do have an emergency, you really want the person dealing with it to be calm and well rested. Mostly, he sounds like the guy who gives you faith in the medical system.
Pharmacist - 10k a month
Hardly any patient comes around like 50 a day which other guys take care of, all I do is watch movies all day.
Antenna designer here. Pay is 240k and I have my own company I run as a side hustle which brings in around 500k per year for a total of 700-800k annual. I work 6-7 hours a day of pretty stress free work.
Go to college, become an electrical engineer. Any accredited university, even night school at community college. Study hard. The initial pay is low, around 70-90k, but most big corpos will sponsor a graduate program. Get a masters and upgrade to a higher paying engineering job, around 100k+. Work in the field and gain as much knowledge as possible about as many things as possible. You will be rewarded for your knowledge, as EE is a field that rewards experience. In 10 years you will be a senior working 4-5 hours a day and making upwards of 180-200k. You can even pick up a second job as a lot of electrical engineering is remote. As long as you work hard and keep learning and honing your technical knowledge, in electrical engineering, companies will pay a premium for you. Once you know enough, you can make your own company.
For the people who saw the video on @amithejerk, it is horrible to hear what is happening to your channel! CZcams needs to fix this, coming from a child. A 13-year-old should not have more common sense than a whole professional organization making millions of dollars a year.

I am a computer science high school teacher (Greece). Every day i put on my best smile, be nice to everyone. Over the years I have compiled a big collection of computer drill files and sheets, so the lesson now is "Last time we did exercise 5, now off to exercise 6" and they manage themselves from there. I allow them to cooperate and help/teach each other during class. Why spoil something simple with overly demands ?
Radiation technologist is not stress free. Im a traveling surgical assistant (also stressful) and ive seen multiple doctors get agressive and call the xray tech out of their name when theyre frustrated with the case
Mind you this is only when we need live xray footage during the surgery which is often especially in ortho but its not uncommon for the tech to leave the room crying
Anything medical field is stressful you have a bunch of a holes all over the country all 40+ hospitals ive worked at
This is why nobody wants to be in the field. It’s hell.
I live in another country, but at my workplace, the only stress they deal with is talking with some of my neurotic colleagues.
I never heard of a medical radiation therapist taking xrays. I am a radiographic technologist and I take xrays. It is a highly stressful job and I am certified to do ctscans too. They literally are at the front line with the doctors and nurses in OR ROOMS. And involved with trauma and stroke codes in hospitals. And they don't get the respect the others fields get. I have no idea where that first story comes from. A radiation therapist job is not easy either. They literally work with patients dying of cancers and other illness all Day. The op in that story is writing a fib.
I'm a night auditor for a hotel. I talk to like 10 people a night max, press two buttons for a computer to handle all the paperwork and write one email. The hardest part is dealing with homeless people and working from 11PM to 7AM
I work 12 hour shifts at a pet food plant, it was super stressful at first, but once I learned my machine that I run really well, it’s been cake. And it keeps me in shape!
How many days a week?
I kinda wanna try to work in a factory, but I'm a little too scared of injuries happening while working. Does it happen often? I;m also worried my small frame will not be suitable for factory jobs 😟
I work as a HIPAA privacy compliance officer. I pull random charts in audits to see if they comply with privacy standards and write reports of the findings. I also run and update new mandates from the government and train staff in the updates. I also work from home about 32 hours a week.
So nothing of value then.
@R K privacy HIPAA is a federal law and I suppose allowing your personal information out there for anyone to use and abuse is absolutely nothing of value for someone like you but for everyone else, I'm sure assisting in the 1 billion in health fraud by UHC that affected people with medical coverage meant something when their signatures were used to charge billions in equipment they didn't need nor order.
You are right for nothing, all I get paid very well!
@SeriouslyOverIt so like do you work with healthcare by any chance.
@Dion Pearse sometimes healthcare but many non medical employers deal with medical documents like letters from doctor for sick days, immunization status for employers and schools and workers compensation documents. Because employers are not medical they sometimes don't follow safety laws when it comes to private information
@SeriouslyOverIt have you ever had any hipaa audits that went badly? I hear that Amazon is doing teleheath so is that something you guys have 2 monitor closely? Alot of health information for patients could be exposed by Amazon.
My less stressful job came as a product of me being completely stressed and pooped out for 5 years. Being a engineer in the telecom field now is a work from home dream.
I own a cannabis company, only time it gets stressful is when I am not stoned enough….. true story
I'm test analyst for a large company. It has great benefits like WFH, structured/tiered progression and very little stress unless you encounter a release, which happens rarely. Pays really well for the job I'm doing and I end up with a lot of free time as I'm pretty quick with my work. Stress comes mostly in small forms when dealing with an annoying colleague or not getting the answers you need for your work.
I'm a content moderator for a Social Media platform, we take videos and accounts, look them over and decide if they are banned or not based on a set of several policies, its pretty chill and honestly i'm so jaded to the content that people would faint at at this point so its pretty chill, pays the bills and is all good.
70K/year plus up to 12% bonus. Learning management admin for internal training in finance. Previously 60k/year when I had no experience as LMS admin for internal and external training at a tech start-up. Pick up new skills quickly, keep track of things like monthly reporting and training rosters, and answer tickets quickly and professionally. Help out others in your department as needed. Some times of the month are busier than others but usually in predictable ways, and I spend a lot of time with nothing to do. I work from home and get a lot of knitting, sewing, etc done and no one has noticed because I'm always right there and on top of things when they need me. Truly unfair that I make so much more than when I was working my ass of in retail.
I'm a vet student. I have an opposite statement. A veterinary graduate, who is a doctor, makes just above minimum wage as an intern, working ungodly hours with no overtime pay. They also usually have a student loan from 200k up to 380k.
Thats criminal tbh…
The two best jobs I have ever had were both found on indeed with titles like "interesting work" and looked scammy as hell until I got to my interviews. Both times I went "Wait...am I really applying for a job at (blank)??" to which I would get an excited "Yes" from the interviewer. One was for a nurse triage making about $14 an hour (the average call center in that area paid $11 for night shift, which always pays the most) The other was for a factory, the only reason why I'm not working there anymore is a coworker bumped me with a cart and hurt my ankle. I was making $17 an hour, could have chosen $18 but I liked my team too much. It was hard work and long hours, but I would get half the week off and had a set schedule so for the first time in my life I could regularly schedule a life outside of work. Some nights I just sat there and watched machinery, easiest money ever.
I'm a UPS driver I absolutely love my job. I make 110k a year, full medical dental and vision for my whole family paid for, 6 weeks of paid vacation, a pension and a 401k, paid holidays off, and 4 optional paid days off a year. I work 8-10 hrs a day, while working I have no boss over my shoulder and it's a job with the number 1 union in the world so our supervisors can't tell you to work faster or they'll get in trouble. Picture this it's 68 degrees and sunny with a nice breeze and your walking up and down residential streets and cultisacs dropping boxes at people's houses that are 95% of the time happy to see you and working at your own pace just enjoying the day. That's my life and for 9.2k a month I wouldn't trade it for anything
Being a ups driver and paid well like that sounds like a dream come true how does one get there as a question?
@austinferrell4921 you have to apply as a preloader which loads the packages at nights. You start there and basically after that it's a waiting game that's all about seniority. You keep working as a preloader and as time goes by your seniority builds and you keep putting your name on the driver sign up sheet every 6 months or so and whoever has the highest seniority goes driving next. But I'll tell you bro it's worth it yes the waiting game sucks but you won't find a better career and I say career not job, that doesn't require college and honestly you make a lot more than people who do go to college. If you can soldier through it your life will be set, I started at 27 and I'll retire at 56 or 57 which is great bit wish I would've started younger so I can retire in my 40's lol
Edit: I also wanted to add that if you can't get a job at UPS or don't wanna go through the waiting to become driver you could also get a job at the post office this would be the next best thing imo but UPS is definitely the best and highest paying and best benefits, also post office doesn't have union protection but this is where I would go if I didn't have UPS
I used to be a mail room clerk for a text book publisher. Best job ever. I wasn’t make the best money, but it was great for the amount of work i had. My coworkers were almost all great, i listened to music or audio books while working, over the summer the office would be mostly empty and i’d read or watch a movie on my PSP.
I was on first name basis with multiple VPs, and only twice was the job stressful. Once when got $30,000 in returned mail because the warehouse changed shipping practices and didn’t tell us (the mail room was full of books and our yearly postage budget was gone in days), and the time the rollers that feed the paper in the copier literally melted.
I left to become a stay-at-home dad. Low stress to high stress
I work as a software engineer. Paid $95k salary. Work from home. I usually do the real work 3-4 hrs a day but other times are meetings or I slack off to do something more fun like playing games or watching whatever online. Or I do my chores or play with my cats. They also pay me to learn something new so I can keep up with new tech stuff. This is the life lol.
do u have any info on devops? is that same or more stressful?
What do you do to learn new stuff? How do you keep up with tech?
@@tpeterson9140 My boyfriend is a Devops engineer and it seems that their job is a lot more chill. And I think it’s also a cooler job than mine definitely lol. They get paid a lot more which is understandable since they are expected to have a lot more skills. And depending on the company, what you do as a Devops engineer would differ. He also works remotely as well too. He has a much more chill workload than me but it might be because he’s a consultant. Other companies might not even differentiate between a Devops engineer and a Software engineer so they’d expect you to do both Devops side of things and Software development. So this would definitely be more stressful but you would be able to learn a lot more things. And you might get paid a lot more too. Amazon for example expects all their devs to be proficient with Devops and software development since they want each dev to be involved in each process of the project.
@@djgulston Tech news is one of the things you can learn more about what’s new. Hackernews is one of them. My company usually tells us what is a good skill to learn now since they want us to learn something if we’re free. And I also like to use Udemy since my professors would notify me in the email with what’s happening in the tech industry and what’s a hot skill to learn right now. But another way to see what skills are hot is to go through job sites lol. I usually use Linkedin a lot too so you can find jobs there and see what companies are looking for, and also see what people are buzzing about in Linkedin.
Where do you live lol, It's very hard to find a SWE job right now and its also very high stress, but again it depends on the company i guess.

Hardest part would be no maidens. Also the easiest part I guess.
The person I know who works the least is my brother - he's an investment banker. He makes millions of dollars, lives in an enormous mansion, goes into the office like twice a week, works from home the rest. He's always taking fancy vacations, never seems stressed out. True story. Me, I'm a tenured professor, I'm always overworked, ridiculously stressed out, every week is a public performance with teaching, and then occasional public lectures and so on. I recommend David Graeber's book "Bullshit Jobs": he notes that it often happens that the more your job matters, the less you get paid, and vice versa.
underneath that lifestyle is a lot of stress about market changes and a lot of things that are totally out of your control, but are given money by people/orgs that expect you to have a crystal ball
I make roughly 17$ an hour, as a night auditor at a hotel. Which isn’t much, but at the same time it’s enough for just me especially in this city being very cheap cost of living. I make roughly, 3,000 every month depending on if it’s a good or bad week sticking with more hours. Average rent here is only 700$. Just to keep a basis on how much every money for a single person has in my situation specifically.
I handle normal front desk things for the first hour, then my job becomes less of a job and more of threat protection incase a guest at 3am gets locked out of a room or to make sure the place doesn’t burn down. So 90% of my shift is bringing my laptop to work and watch tv or play games.
It’s almost intoxicating amount of free time, and I never have a day where I’m like.. I don’t want to go to work. Being I do exactly what I do at home at work so it’s like a second home for me… but I get paid to do it? The heck?

Man this makin me seriously question my entire life lmao. I make good money as an engineer but my life is always stressful with projects and deadlines all the time.
Same, I'm a chemical engineer and make a decent salary, but project deadlines and plant troubleshooting makes the work stressful; no extra pay for my extra hours having to research stuff. And I freaking hate meeting corporate "goals" every damn year, and setting my own personal "Career goals" for "continued growth". Please, just leave me alone, i don't want to keep "learning" any more shit, just want to have free time to do my hobbies, ugh.

A guard at the plasma center I donate at told me and my ex coworker the same thing. Like, all they do is sit there. One of them goes outside like all the time. It seems like a chill job tbh. My only hesitation on being a guard is for if the opportunity comes for me to get confrontational/physical with someone, but it seems very unlikely from what I've seen

I do tech support + QA in a small company. 85% of the things are like that desktop support role mentioned, human error. Occasionally we fix something that takes longer to figure out. But most of the time, I can just do my laundry, take breaks here and there to walk outside and relax, etc. I won't be staying in the job as I'm moving on to a PhD program and doing jobs related to that, but I'll always have a soft spot for that simple life I experienced ❤️
I’m a self employed carpenter. I traded the stress of a mean boss or working for a company for the stress of keeping a small business organized and making sure I have work.
But the freedom it gives me has reduced 90% of stress that comes with any job.
Is carpentry difficult if you're a woman ie does it require heavy lifting? I've done some basic carpentry on my allotment and enjoyed it, fixing doors, building raised beds etc. I'm creative and like designing. But I also suffer from migraines, I'm not very tall and I've hurt my back in the past digging and lifting because I'm not super strong although I do exercise and keep healthy. I've considered getting a trade like carpentry but wasn't sure if I could do it physically. I'm 40 so also not super young anymore.
I have no idea where that college professor is but 1000000% disagree. Since I left academia, I am slowly realizing how much I missed out on and every one of my coworkers had no life. Most who were married had divorced because the machine forces you whole identity to be a professor. I was proud that I was so balanced but it was completely relative. I'm almost glad long covid took me out of the work force because I forgot what it felt like to do normal stuff like have a phone call with my dad for no reason and have coffee with my husband without 1000 things on my mind. Universities will take your soul. Will never go back.

I do statistics in the insurance industry. They rely on my work for new business sales, which has been very successful for the company. While I don't actually "sell" (I don't find the customers), once I get the opportunity to present my data to the prospect, quite often they become customers. I'm paid well, and get have a lot of respect from coworkers. I don't have a sales goal - but I do try really hard to get new customers even though my pay is fixed. Really the best company I've ever worked for. I hope to retire from this company.

It's mostly just feeding, watering, and transferring cats into people's laps, plus the bonus of a free drink every shift. Only downside is scooping litter and the occasional puke. And yes, all these cats are adoptable, so stop by if you're in East Lansing, Michigan!
I’m a salesman/accountant for a small business. I get to go wherever I want, get paid for my gas, my boss is a super cool older guy who helps me learn how to be a better salesman, can take as much time as I want off and I make a lot of money doing it
Programming.
Become so stressed that you become used to it and doesnt even feel it anymore. It makes you faster when solving stressful problems as well. If you dont panic or stress over something you tend to go to straight solving the thing.
I work in a very large IT company. Make close to 100k before bonuses and have 30-60min meetings about 3-4 times a week. I honestly couldn't be happier. I come from a poorer background and having to work at McDonalds, retail, teaching English abroad and my previous job to this as a landscaper. So my current job is amazing compared to anything I've had before. Putting in the work to my studies at night finally paid off.
Any advice as someone trying to enter back into IT? I have the experience but for reasons too long, I can't afford to retest my Comptia certs for the higher paying jobs just yet and can't seem to get into any entry level IT jobs.
@@crazedmeat I live in a unique country with free University education. Assuming you're American, I can only suggest you save for the certs while adding the expired certs to your LinkedIn and try applying from there.
@@haggishighwaysDo you have advice for someone in the UK to get into IT? I did a free UX UI bootcamp last year run by the govt but it wasn't well taught. I was wondering about other IT roles. I learnt html 20 years ago and made a website from scratch but technology has changed a lot since then. I would need a free or low cost way of learning the required skills.
I’m a monitor technician at a hospital. All I do is watch patients’ heart rhythms and contact nurses about abnormalities or if the patient is dying. 36 hrs/week very low stress but super boring. It’s very slow but can be busy at times. Only stressful part is dealing with mean nurses and making sure you don’t miss anything critical. Most of the time I am watching videos or listening to podcasts. Easy money as long as you don’t mess up, very flexible schedule and decent pay while helping save lives
0:47 that’s how Homer Simpson did it huh
I'm both a pizza delivery driver (for a resturaunt, not an app), and a direct support provider (caretaker) at a group home for people with developmental disabilities-- worth noting my clients are all very independent and don't need help with the most basic tasks. They just need help managing their finances, schedules and medication schedules, and need someone CPR certified on-site, etc.
Both jobs pay well relative to how easy and chill they are, ESPECIALLY driving. Except both jobs have one thing in common: they're incredibly chill... until all of a sudden they *absolutely* are not.
Tattoo artist 🤙 get to draw for work. Make my own schedule. Make good money. Leave when I want. Talk for a living. Pretty fun
That's wassup I deliver 🍕 part time and jam out to music no uniforms free food and talk or text on the phone my other job I'm a driver I have to use my own car but at least it's freedom your out and about by yourself
I rent apartments from my family, and manage the company that holds them. It's pretty chill. I mostly talk with the tenants via e-mail, and maybe they need my help for something once a month each of them.
I charge them, pay bills, pay the company bills. I don't recall ever having stress in it. Maybe once when one tenant stopped paying rent. I had to call a lawyer. In two months we manage to remove her from the moment she stopped paying rent. I am 33 but people tell me I look like I am on my 20's.
I do around 2,3k per month.
im so jealous of you i work 11 hours of hard soulcrushing repetitive labour for 1600

What kind of hours?
property management. sounds good.
Dude, that crazy taxi game... Forgotten core memory unlocked. It was hilarious as kids to pick up passengers and then go drive on the ocean floor underwater. 😸😸😸
That's exactly the name, in English as well as in Spanish (taxi loco!)
Responsibility is what determines pay rate. The more responsibility you have, the more stress you have. The triad are always together.
Not all the time. E.g caregivers are essentials and carry a lot of responsibility and not necessarily paid well
@@masterculturedunkerque7918 you and I have a different definition of paid well
This is just not true, if this was true then airplane pilots would be paid millions of dollars they get paid well but not for the responsibility
You get paid based on how educated they think you are nothing more
@@massacrematt4613 within a specific field it is 100% true. Comparing different fields its a combination of responsibility and the number of available people that qualify for the position, for example teachers get crappy pay because 1000 qualified people apply for every available teachers position. There is no incentive to pay them more because so many qualified applicants. Nurses on the other hand have more jobs available than qualified applicants. This competition for filling positions drives up the wages for nurses but not for teachers.
It's kind of crazy to me how some people say 40k is great and others say 80k is just ok. The differences in the regions are pretty crazy.
I'm guessing it has to do with the state. 80k in california is okay. 40k in the middle of nowhere kind of state is great.
@@lutravelstheworld 40k is basically good anywhere that isn't New York or California.
@@camd464840k is terrible anywhere…
I consider my salary pretty good, since it’s double federal minimum wage, and I’m a barista *cough* glorified stocker *cough*. I stock kitchens in a bank. Love my coworkers and the bankers!
Depending on the company/project you work in I think being an entry/mid level software developer is pretty chill based on my experience so far, main reason being you're not the one having to talk with clients, coordinate with other people, or make big decisions about design and architecture, and you usually get the easier tasks, these are things that no longer apply once you become a senior developer or manager. Yeah you get paid less compared to higher positions, but considering that entry level salaries for the tech industry is already higher than most jobs then I think it's a pretty good pay.
Thank you for this comment! I'm studying to become a frontend developer right now and I was so discurraged by this video, seeing how people do nothing and get paid. Because when you're learning web development it doesn't seem easy. I'm glad to see that once I learn and get a job it won't be as stressful
no way, you simply haven't worked in software engineering long enough. The only possibility this could be low stress is if your not doing Agile bullshit.
@@gabrijelapodrzaj7135 Sorry bud, it will be stressful, especially if your company uses Agile which many do...
just realize if you sit there too many years without moving up, get laid off, you'll not easily get re-hired as a 40 yr old that hasn't moved up into leadership
I spent a month in the hospital this past Winter. I had to get an MRI done while there and the lady who did it seemed extremely relaxed without a care in the world.
Lol, I just had one done yesterday and had the same experience.
I have 2 jobs. While one of them is a cashier position at Walmart and is decidedly not easy, I work security at a cox enterprises warehouse. I sq6 security but it's called fire watch. I'm paid 20 dollars an hour on a weekly basis for just playing games and watching shows on their roku TV and occasionally walking around and checking for fires. They have a ton of fire extinguishers around so there's no worry about it.
Software engineer. $215k/yr work 930-330pm, take off whenever i want. Come im the office if i want. Its a blessing.
you have a degree?
@@tiffanyzieglerof course it’s an engineer
I did an internship with radiation techs. They sat in a dark room with computers and the machine rooms surrounded them. They would take turns scanning patients and then go back to the computers. Sometimes one would leave to get a wheelchair person from their room. It was very chill, but incredibly boring.
I'm an ex soldier who was an artillery scout. Super heavy MOS. I've worked cap 2, truck unloading and stocking for Walmart at 13 an hour and now work at a dollar general for 10. I don't see how people do those jobs without the discipline of an ex combat soldier
I'm a switchboard operator for a medical group. Sometimes you're getting nonstop calls for hours, but it's very easy work and sometimes you're hardly getting any calls at all. I just sit there playing puzzles on the computer or shopping. Most calls last all of a second or two. Stress free.
Yo what company is this and location? Sounds great. I want an easy job like this or a remote job is what I really desire.
@@milesmorra5910 Our call volume is too high to work remote, and were told it would crash the system. We each handle about 800 calls a day, but it honestly doesn't feel like it. Most hospitals or large medical offices/clinics will have similar positions.
For those who wonder, the game is called Crazy Taxi, I'm not sure if it's available on consoles but is definitely an arcade cabinet. Super fun, I never leave my local arcade without playing a few games.
I think I had it on ps2 or something when I was a kid
I'm an engineer, we occasionally have nerf gun fights
It’s not exactly easy work, but I find it to be very low stress coming from a military background. I’m a younger construction foreman with a very hardworking older Mexican crew. I swing a hammer, make phone calls to subcontractors, dish out the days to do list and eat fast food with my guys. I tell dirty jokes, work around their schedules, sometimes I find a beer can on the job sight (10% chance it’s mine) but I’ve never had any problems with work ethic. I love my job.
I get payed well enough to live at home lol. I'm a receptionist. It was already a low stress job the day I started working there but went even lower after the pandemic. To the point where I literally get paid to sit and do nothing for 10 hours. So to keep from falling asleep at the front desk, I revived my love for artwork and started drawing again.
pam beasley fr??
I'm also a receptionist, and I find it stressful lol because my company works for several businesses at the same time, so imagine having to serve customers of nutritionists, photographers, architects, dermatologists and even a beauty salon at the same time... I can't focus as I should, so I make silly mistakes, and I get scolded all the time. At night, before sleeping, I can't stop thinking about it and feel huge regret. It's too stressful for me.
I work a high stress and very high requirement job and my blood is boiling haha. Time to change jobs.
Work on the line for a candy factory. I worked at a candy factory and was paid 14 or so dollars an hour to literally just stare at chocolate pretzels getting the chocolate put on. Just don't fall asleep as boring as it may be.
I work as a non-emergency medical transport. We basically take people to their doctor and dentist appointments that don't have the means to get there,so mostly elderly. You have to enjoy driving, socializing and being patient. I recently got promoted to a Lead position where I oversee the driving crew(there are 5 of us). I make more than the state average & much more than the national average. The place I work at offers great benefits, I put 20% of my earnings in 401k and have a lot of PTO hours saved up because I enjoy what I do (I've taken 1 sick day in 4 years). I'm a high school drop out with zero education. I tried different jobs over the years but this one is what I'm staying with. If you're in the workforce and feel lost and just keep going through the motions, just keep an open mind & try different jobs. You never know what is going to peak your interest. I'm very fortunate to be where I'm at, and it's because I never gave up and kept trying.
I'm a data analyst for a firm. Personally find it chill. Only issue I had was when hired, no one to train me using their system. Glad they gave me hybrid post. Sometimes need to help other on the computer, but easy. My computer science knowledge is good, but they are poor in it. So they want to use easier tech.
I'm trying to break into by being a Data Analyst...it is impossible because no one wants to hire me because I have no experience.
Did you find it difficult to get employment without experience?
Former military. Pay stinks in the military if you are single. Currently working in Criminal Justice careers. Pay is sufficient but stress workload can be taxing and will eat into your personal home life.
