“From Money magazine, the Best Jobs in America. I have the best one, apparently.

From a side piece about unusual perks:

"Outdoor outfitter Patagonia pays employees to work for an environmental group of their choice for up to two months. In the past, workers have monitored wolves in Yellowstone and restored native plants in Hawaii. The privately held Ventura, Calif. company will also, "under certain circumstances," pay bail for workers jailed for civil disobedience related to environmental activism."”

“THis is SOOO Cool...my job is SECOND FROM THE BOTTOM..watch out semiconductor guys HERE WE COME.

Note they elimnated Dangerous Work Environment and below $50,000....heck thats good, keep everyone from wanting my job.

“My job, architect, is one of the worse paying when comparing the amount of investment put in.

“They seem to have missed my chosen profession: US Government Civil Service Euphemism: DOD/Logistics Support Group

Pay is ok, and the perks are so-so...but the intangible benifits well......”

“ST

are you saying youre like chloe on "24"?”

“That list is bogus; "Porn Actor" isn't on it.”

“They missed my career (court reporter/closed captioner) completely. I am rather surprised because of the good pay and the big need. And relatively speaking, it costs less to get the education and training necessary when compared to other fields.”

“Obviously housewife ain't there. The bene's are, well sometimes they can be aiight. They pay ain't too good I'll hafta say.

I'm the guy version of a housewife.”

“My wife and I are #2 and #9. Cool!”

“I'm really surprised 'family farmer' is not on the list

of course, this is a fallout of the illegal immigration issue

for the abundant cheap labor allows the factory farms using massive chemical and fuel inputs and so producing crops with the appeal of cardboard

to make smalltime family farming a losing proposition.”

“Crash////...24 what?”

“#30 for me, wife is #47, sending this to my 19y/o!!@!!”

“Speaking of Jobs I got a voice mail last night that John Deere wants to make me an offer to come work from them. If its good enough good bye Case red hello John Deere Green.”

“FLASHER??? Where you gonna be working if you go with DEERE? They have a pretty big facility outside of Augusta and from what I have seen it is a pretty well run group. IMHO they are a good group to work for.”

“I grew up with International Harvester and John Deere tractors.”

“The Harvester works in Moline IL. Its' a very big place, makes the Burlington IA Case plant look small and its 1 million sq ft”

“OK got the phone call from the Guy at Deere, I'm looking at 1,100 more a year. Problem is I need a signing bonus from Deere so I can pay Case back the signing bonus they gave me. Due to the fact that I'm leaving before one full year of work with Case.”

“Physician Assistant... #5 I believe it is. Interesting, they state that we get all the benefits of being a doctor without the paperwork and headaches. What a bunch of garbage. Funny, I had about 3 hours of paperwork yesterday.

robertr”

“Hey, #2 isn't bad! They have the pro/con stuff pretty accurate. Good news to pass on to my daughter now that she's decided to go for a Ph.D.

And I'm 40+ places above my ex, ha ha.”

“My grandfather had a Johnny Popper on the old farm way back when ... a Model A. A sweet sound!

“Some days I'm #16 some days I'm #46”

“I'm a big Deere fan. I've owned my 318 since '87. Yeah, its not one of the big guys, but it does everything I've ever needed. When the engine finally gives up the ghost (1500 hours on it now) I'm thinking about converting it to electric.”

“Guys....should this have been under the Atonement Thread?

It is by the PERFECT JOB
