I agree with you that line cook is a very hard job and I have nothing but respect for all the workers out there facing daily harsh conditions.
Having said that, I also understand that mental problems caused by stress at work, the abuse and pressure some intellectual workers face is as real and dangerous, however is less visible.
That's why I think that people reading this should not underestimate those dangers and look for a change from those conditions regardless of whether they come from mental or physical sides of our jobs.
- Mikeb85 7y agoHonestly, I've done a lot of jobs, some manual, some not, went to university, all of it. Anything that pays well is easy compared to a job that pays shit. The possibility that a missed shift means missing rent and potentially being homeless is far more stressful than any amount of mental 'abuse' or physical strain.
- alexk 7y agoI did not mean to compare different level of hardships people can face. What I mean is that when someone feels pain and suffering they should look for a change whenever it is possible, regardless of the outside perception of their position. Do you agree?
- Mikeb85 7y agoSure, whenever possible. I don't agree with abusive workplaces. But from my personal perspective, there's a certain amount of shit I'm willing to take and it's based on how much I get paid. If the pay's the same, I'll take a happier environment 10/10 times.

There are always exceptions to this rule: https://time.com/4487297/high-paying-jobs-personality/ https://time.com/4487297/high-paying-jobs-personality/ Edit- consider newly graduated investment bankers, medical residents, junior lawyers. There are some very well paying professions that operate under extremely stressful situations.
