Not that ANY of us would be thinking of other careers, especially after three grueling weeks of intense appointments, the Job Fair, CAS reception, and Federal Career Week right on top of each other, and the economic situation. But maybe our MBA students would be interested in a Yahoo article discussing Laurence Shatkin's 150 Best Low-Stress Jobs. How about mathematician? Archivist? Forester? Travel agent? His instrument helps clients find non-Type A jobs that actually have growth potential. (I'm not sure if chocolate tester was on the list.) However, a review noted that most were low paying, blue collar jobs where there could be the stress of low pay, and that it seemed to be a rehash of his 200 Best Jobs for Introverts. "Cappy" questioned the validity of that work, as well, when suggested occupations included team-based jobs like fashion designer and lawyer.

A new study of 1,000 workers in Europe found that stressful jobs accounted for 45 per cent of new cases of depression. The factors which the scientists isolated as being especially important were excessive demands on the job and extreme time pressures. Not only did they find that these workers, with an average age of 32, were experiencing a high percentage of job-related stress-induced depression, but there appeared to be a 40 percent increase in reports from workers of job stress. http://www.xanax-effects.com/
