Hey look, you may hate your job, but there is always a bright side. Well, unless your job falls on the following list.

A new study ranked the unhealthiest jobs in America. It's based on factors such as exposure to diseases and radiation, risk of minor and major injuries, and even how much time you spend sitting.

Here's the top 10:

  1. Dentists and dental hygienists
  2. Flight attendants
  3. Anesthesiologists
  4. Veterinarians
  5. Podiatrists
  6. Immigration and customs inspectors
  7. Histotechnologists (They take tissue samples from diseased people and animals, and prepare them for analysis.)
  8. Water and waster water treatment plant workers
  9. Stationary engineers and boiler operators
  10. Surgical assistants

I don't know a whole lot about risks at a job or jobsite, but my common sense would lead me to believe #8 should be higher up. Perhaps at least #1 or #2? (Bazinga! I'll be here all week.)
