50 Best Jobs in America
The good folks over at CNNMoney.com have been at it again. This time they've come out with a list of the 50 best jobs in America. While some such as college professor were of no surprise to me, others were. For example, I know that the job market has bounced back for information technology workers, but how many people would have expected software engineers to rank first? Or computer analysts to rank as high as seventh? And just where on the list is owner of a college job board? Hmmm.
The list, with no further editorializing:
