    Do You Like Your Job?

    Yahoo recently posted an interesting list: The happiest jobs in America. According to Yahoo, the top 10 jobs belonging to the happiest people are:

    10. Airline pilots/navigators
    9. Industrial engineers
    8. Mechanical and repair
    7. Science technicians
    6. Actors and directors
    5. Special education teachers
    4. Architects
    3. Travel agents
    2. Firefighters

    And the #1 happiest occupation is CLERGY.

    As you might guess, for most of these jobs, compensation isn’t the main factor in determining contentment. And I thought of that in terms of my freelance writing. I could make a lot more money with my home business, but then I wouldn’t have as much time with my son. And that sort of defeats the purpose of working from home.
