I’m a perfesser-type person. I find my job Active and Low Stress, but a high percentage of my colleagues seem to claim it’s High Stress. I have no idea why. Well, I have a couple of ideas, but they’re mean-spirited if accurate and too many people in my profession are psychological weenies of some sort.
When dealing with their customrers, surgeons have the wonderful advantage over waiters that the surgeons’ customers are restrained and frequently comatose and that the customers are aware that the surgeons have a knife already in their hands. Those advantages have been found by scientific study to reduce the stress of dealing with obnoxious customers very substantially.
