Top 5 Jobs for Men

Of course there are exceptions. You have to be lucky.

Every experienced chef I\'ve ever met complains an awful lot about all the things I just mentioned, and then some. Working public holidays, working birthdays, and other important events, social and otherwise. Not to mention younger chefs becoming increasingly burnt out. I\'ve also known a lot of apprentices who dropped out because they didn\'t want to sacrifice as much as they were starting to.

At the moment I have a cruisy job, and am enjoying my social life immensely, not to mention have taken up sports again also. However, it is painful every time my friends ask me to do something and I am unavailable. Or anytime my girlfriend wants me to go on holidays, or even a weekend away, it\'s nearly impossible. And that\'s with an amazingly cruisy job. So many sacrifices have to be made, and with very little monetary benefit.

Overall, I wouldn\'t recommend it as a proffession. But if you\'re passionate about the cooking, then I suppose you\'ll love it.

Edit: It\'s also known as the second most stressful job in the world. Throw that into the mix.

I\'m Jumpman bitch haha!

...
Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

yeah I worked in a restaurant for several years as a sous chef and It sucked.  You have to work from like 3pm - midnight... later on friday/saturday nights.  Have to work the holidays (busiest time for restaurants in resort areas) You basically work non-stop and can never have any fun hanging out with friends in the evening.

never again

job i have now isn\'t that bad,..i work nights, and the only saving grace is that i work 4 nights a week and i have my weekends off,...i would still prefer a nice 8-4 or 9-5 job...this shift work gets tired after awhile,...:(...tho nothing beats the job i had back in jersey,...i had a week off every month with that job,...i barely had to take any vacation days because of my schedule...that was a sweet-ass gig...oh well, this job is betta than no job at all,...

What is it clips? And without being specific, you get paid enough for live comfortable? The general line of thought is that cheap housing comes with the price of low wages.

But you\'re jump to Atlanta interests me (I\'m in Jersey, too) so I was just curious how you\'re doing.

i\'m doin the same thing i was doin in jersey,..a computer operator,..i was working with the zeke scheduling operating system involving alot of jes2 & jes3 commands...unix....ipl\'s etc.....right now i monitor and run programs for coca-cola using the as/400 operating system..and it\'s true the cost of living is a bit lower than up there, but i have 16 years experience doin this, so i\'m makin pretty close to what i was making jersey...i\'m living very comfortably right now, due largely to the fact that the real estate market down here is still fairly cheap....

heh if you ever plan on makin the jump just know that the thunderstorms down here are twice as bad as up there. i\'m kinda gettin used to them now but they can get pretty severe...other than that i have no complaints...
