@npt Excuse me NPT, but when you address someone two or more stars your better, please use the proper honorific:  Your Grace or Lord Stevens will suffice.

One job sector stood above the rest as the "unhappiest" in America. Results pointed to those working in pharmacies as having the worst Net Happiness Score, with just 13.94 percent of pharmacy workers giving a positive assessment.

The next three on the unhappiest list were those who worked in delivery and postal services, animal health, and medical clinics.

Conversely, the happiest workers were those who worked in tobacco, e-cigarette and marijuana stores. The industry got a phenomenal happiness score of 91.87 percent.

 

 

 

I could see animal health workers being unhappy. Dealing with some pet owners and eventually putting animals down has to wear on you. 

And Pharmacists make decent money, but they’re still stuck behind a counter in the back of a drug store or big box store all day. Plus, they get shit from docs and customers.

@mcm666 We are starting to sound like old curmudgeons. lol Back in my day it was great. These young people don't know what they are doing.


While I regarded God as a tyrant I thought my sin a trifle; But when I knew Him to be my Father, then I mourned that I could ever have kicked against Him. When I thought God was hard, I found it easy to sin; but when I found God so kind, so good, so overflowing with compassion, I smote upon my breast to think that I could ever have rebelled against One who loved me so, and sought my good.” C. H. Spurgeon

I think a lot of people go into a profession because of the money they hope to make and never consider if they'll be happy doing what they have to do to make that money.

Every time I go up to Michigan to make a run, those saints at the dispensary are the nicest people you ever want to meet.  

 

I wonder if they get free samples.

@boogie As it turns out, financial advisors rate their career happiness 2.7 out of 5 stars which puts them in the bottom 10% of careers.

@mcm666 it's a part time gig.

 

Vending is where the real money is.

Same. People love me. I bring them what they need in a timely fashion, and fvck with them while I'm there. And even if there is something wrong (it happens) they don't blame me, they blame the counter people who processed the order. I just tell them we have a bunch of dumbasses on the counter and I'll get it fixed right away.

@unclemark yeah, nobody is upset when they see me coming.  I make all their cravings go away.

 

I'm in a weird situation where, being on commission, every time prices go up, I get a pay raise which is a weird spot to be because it's been proven that people pay for convenience.

@mcm666 if you would have proven that you could have used a tire gauge properly, I think they would have let you do it.

Golden Tee helps keep the lights on, but the only thing that really makes money in vending is gambling. When the state cracked down on Cherry Masters, everyone went into pull-tabs. I'm surprised they are still so widespread, but I guess with the spread of legal casinos, local authorities just got sick of fighting it.
