A new study found FIREFIGHTERS have the highest job satisfaction of any workers in the U.S.

The other four in the top five most satisfied workers are: Mine cutters . . . pediatricians . . . communications professors . . . and guidance counselors.

On the other end, people who hate their jobs the most are: Court clerks . . . house cleaners/maids . . . insurance claims and policy clerks . . . and telemarketers.
