Answer 3

Well, you will never get an accurate or correct answer as a) your question is subjective and b) no one has worked every job there is.

Out of the jobs I have had, teaching high schoolers is the most draining thing I have ever done, with teaching college kids at a close second.

I used to give tours in a cavern. Walked up and down, did 3 miles a day. Not as tiring as teaching.

But that is my assessment from the jobs I have had. It is a completely subjective answer.

Answer 4

Soldier is probably pretty tiring at times like these.

Being a Sherpa is probably pretty tiring as well.

pffft teaching....

Answer 5

TEACHING-both mentally and physically!

Although it is very rewarding, it does take huge amounts of planning, creativity, and innovation.  It has to be a "dog and pony show" everyday in order to keep today's students focused.

Answer 6

Collecting sulfur deposits from a steaming volcano day-in-day-out in the south Pacific has my  vote as the Worst Job Ever. Climbing the mountain everyday, exposed to horrible conditions at the top, traipsing back down 3+ miles with 50 pounds of stinking sulfur on your back, for maybe $2 a day?

Answer 7

Fireman has quite a bit of stress when the going gets tough.

Not only is it physically demanding but it can be mentally demanding to know you have to save people too!!
