I Could Not Do It...

Yeah that would be very stressful I agree. I often think about how I couldn't be a nurse. It usually only takes two years to be an LPN and now that I have been thinking about going to college that career has came up a number of time. I just know that I couldn't handle the pressure of dealing with injuries coming right in the door of a hospital.

Same observation and feeling here :) Jobs on the road are difficult tasks. It requires stamina, presence of mind and intelligence. Maybe we cannot do it now because we are not there but if we want to survive, we can do what they are doing.

There are several jobs that I wouldn't be able to do, and taxi driver is one of them. I am not a good driver and my sense of direction is extremly bad (sometimes I even get lost in my own town if I don't carry a map ) I mostly eat vegeterian food and I don't think that I could work as a butcher. I love animals and a job where I had to perform experiments that involve animals would also be one of the jobs that I would definately avoid, I just couldn't do that. I don't like to be the center of attention and a job as a tv host would not be a dream job for me.

Hmmm.... I am sure that I won't want to work in the zoo! I don't want to be scooping out poop of all the animals! I have always learned to do multi-tasking in all the jobs that have been. I feel a lot better having to do things all at the same time, so that would mean lesser hours to stay with the job.

I never thought about that job, but I know I could not be a taxi driver. I can't drive out of my comfort zone. I'm a bit agoraphobic, I think. I've never been diagnosed but I freak out when I get so far away from home. Another job I don't think I could do is to be a 911 operator. I am not good under that kind of pressure. I was a nurse for a lot if years. I worked OB, ER, Ned/Surg and newborn nursery. I did it all, including long term care. That is my element, but anything else I'm a fish out if water. I did work for an insurance company when I was in college in 2005. I helped them go paperless. So I had to enter all the details into the computer for them.

Although the difficulty of a certain job may vary depending on our skills and interest, yes some job are more difficult than other job around. As for me being a driver in a jeepney is one of the toughest job I could ever imagine. The driver would have to concentrate on his driving while receiving payments from the passengers, that would be difficult for me. Medical professions are also difficult and I think I can't do that is why I salute those on this field. Have a wonderful day!

Hi there. Remember that everything isn't easy when it's not our field. But I'm pretty sure they have training for that type of job. I guess the job that I don't think I'd ever be able to do is to be one of those sales agents trying to woo people to buy their product. I'm just not that thick-skinned, and I find that their job is not easy and I really hate being rejected. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

There are lots under the sky I can't do especially hard men works. There's one specific job I hate to do. It is being a Teacher in school. I had a weak voice. But my patience is enough for those naughty students. All I can tell that I don't understand we with myself is " it's hard to be a teacher." I salute all teachers.. :)

Thinking about it, I probably cannot become a good window washer. I like cleaning and keeping everything neat but if I have to go up high, I will probably die of fright. Dispatcher, I can handle. I can even be a call center agent if I have no choice. Have a nice day!

During my college dasys, I lived with an aunt in Boao. Catbalogan. Having reside in the place for nearly a decade, I knew residents thereof from eye to eye, including their means of livelihood. Most of the time the atmosphere there smells aleays fishy because 95% of them were involved in drying fish under the sun. Their income from drying fish was supplemented from earnings as kargador when launches and ships docked at the pier. At this point, I would like to recall the life of "Dory" one of the kargador or baggage man. Like his fellow kargadors, he would not show any sign of reluctance, laziness, pretense, etc. He never complained. He would be covered with dirt and slime from head down, especially when loading and unloading bags of cement, steel material, etc. Until this time my admiration still lingers with him. For me he was a mystery. He was really a puzzle to me. I asked myself why did he persist in such a very low and degrading class of labor: loading and unloading heavy things for others at very minimal fee when he was a college graduate, a degree holder.

I would hate doing those 'conveyor belt' kind of jobs - doing the same thing over and over again, every single day. I like change and also something that needs thinking. I am grateful that I never had to do anything that was monotonous.

hi loving I am probably with you...I think it takes a special person with a very special personality.some people are just build for certain jobs and some are not....Any outside job would be bad to me because its would be ok during the summer months but winter will come around,,thats not good for me...LOL

I could not do it, either. Anytime I'm in the taxi, I hear the dispatcher talk like every minute some expressions that I don't understand, people calling... I would be so confused. Not to talk about that my sense of orientation is even none-existent when it comes to my part of the district, let alone a whole city...

I have an ex sister in law, who had that kind of job in las vegas. Shed come home so stressed out at night. As drivers would blame her for every bad trip they had.

Ironically a job suggestion was made to me only Monday, when a work colleague who I hadn't seen for 18 years was driving the bus I got on! They recommended driving a bus and told me the wage, although well paid, driving a bus is the last job I'd want to consider. Not that I don't love driving, I do, but having to deal with angry people demanding to know why the bus was late, or the one before was cancelled, or passengers who take their aggression out on you. The traffic, driving in rush hour and people refusing to pay their fare, and the radio on informing me of traffic roadworks and to curtail the bus if it's running late and... well it might be well paid but not for all that stress, no thank you!

Lets see... any job dealing with small children. Any job with sales. Any job dealing with the public. Any job where I'm on my feet (I hurt my feet about 25 years ago and they have never recovered.) I'm sure there are lots more... but most of those are because I lack the skills like programing or certain kinds of programs.

How about the 9 11 dispatchers as i was offered a job there and i f ailed their test as i was not fast eno ugh no I cou ld handle angry patients, scared patients, grateful patients but not the urgency and u nrelenting p hone calls of 911 no way I admire them for the way they handle all those calls of emegencies. I would not be able to keep up.

Yes the taxi driver job, looks so hard driving people around all day, earning their fare, I see taxi drive go pass my house all the time, and the only thing I hate about taken a taxi, is that the driver smokes some times, and another job that look hard is driving the public bus, picking up passenger all day every day, dropping them off, that job has really got to be a headache, dealing with some of these nasty customers, all day I don't see how they can do it, but if you want to earn you money you have to do it.

Yes, you are right, the job also make me stress because everyday handle tens drivers that have different problem with their passengers. I think all operator will experience this case, receive hundreds phone that ask everything, complaint or just want to speak with someone. Yes, I can do it. I cannot handle too many people who want my help. I prefer do with myself than give some service to other person.

I had learnt how to do cycling, driving and I do well. However, I just could not learn to ride a motorcycle. I tried so many times and got myself hurt. I gave it a try again and again but yet I failed. In the end, I just have to give it up and surrender. Anyway, I am satisfied that I can drive now and it is far better than riding a bike under a hot sun or rain [em]happy[/.em].
