9. Nurse – Exposure To Contagious Illnesses

 nurse-786097_1920

Nurses work as hard as doctors, but get less pay and less respect. Add that to how rude and aggressive people can be when in distress.  More importantly, working as a nurse puts one in danger of exposure to all kinds of terrible germs, gases, and drugs.  The Emergency Nurses Association lists bearing witnesses to people dying and in pain as a major stress, compounded by long hours per shift and actual violence which may occur in the hospital.  It is so vital that we have people willing to be nurses to help the rest of us in our times of need, but it is too bad that this profession is so stressful and will continue to be so in 2016.
