A student once asked me an interesting question: "what are the occupational hazards of this career?"
Most people naively assume there are not any.
I told them poor health due to a sedentary lifestyle, depression, and social isolation.
- swader999 5y agoA lot disparage this career for "you sit in front of a computer all day" but fail to realize that this is the way a lot of other work has gone towards.
- kace91 5y agoTo be fair, I'd say those are "things this job doesn't provide" vs just harm. Some people get their daily dose of excercise, social interaction and dopamine hits from their work. In our field, we don't, so we need to find complementary activities for that.
