I can guarantee you that the jobs listed were not sufficiently vetted. For example, study the divorce rate of motion picture editors and see if you find anything odd... If it's anything like audio editors it will be around 70% from my personal observations- unless I was living in a bubble.

Perhaps they just need to define what "best" means?

And I would think construction worker might have ranked higher had the poll been taken during the hight of the housing boom... lol.
