12 Most Overrated Jobs

<p>Articles like this one truly annoy me. That article really says nothing. Of course, jobs/professions aren’t always what they’re cracked up to be. Not everyone who is a doctor, lawyer, or Indian chief earns huge bucks and not everyone who is a CEO slaves away for hours and hours. Duh . . . Every profession has a downside and if one thought about it for a few minutes, he/she would realize that. I suppose kids might be blindsided by some fairy tale view of what it’s like to be X, Y, or Z–but even kids have moments of clarity. Personally, I think if you do what you love or what excites you or what you’re good at doing–you’ll be fine. My father was an immigrant who worked at all kinds of jobs, even those that were mind-numbing. He did it because he had no choice. I think if one puts himself/herself in the position of having some choice with respect to jobs–that’s the best of all worlds.</p>
