I find doorwork very easy, 99% of the time you're just standing around, talking to people and having fun. I also found gardening/landscaping to be very stress free.

Doorwork would be many people's idea of hell on Earth! All that awkwardness, confrontation, and all that pressure to be sociable non-stop. :eek: Give me a quiet admin job shoved in a corner any day. I think people have very different ideas of what's easy.

Now the admin job shoved in a corner would be my idea of hell! I'd end up getting stressed through sheer boredom! I need a bit of variety and excitement.

I like variety too, just not the confrontational kind.
Can't say I agree that some of the least stressful jobs can't be stressful, but I think we'd all agree that the 10 most stressful ones look pretty stressful!
Nah. Film critic. You get the whole pre-press blurb package anyway, so all you have to do is come up with a few clever soundbites combined with some half baked philosophical notes, and make sure your review contains the phrase "Film of the Year!!" or "Totally Awesome, this will blow you away!!" followed by five stars and hey presto, the newspaper you work for is on the cinema poster. Job done.
I bet most of them do it with their eyes closed, and get very good money for it.

I think being a film critic is a tad more involved than that!

Librarian must be the least stressful job ever (although with so many library closures it might be stressful worrying if you'll still have a job in the next financial year)
i think the most stressful must be a an Air Traffic Controller :eek:

Oh I'm not talking about the few really good ones like Mark Kermode or anything, more your bog standard coming up with the same boring cliches all year long kind. They still make it on to the posters
ITV football pundit. With all the interminable ad breaks, pre/post match interviews with players & managers etc., they have about 10 minutes of air time to fill, talking about something they love. And now Keano's taken the Ireland job, they don't even have to cope with him glaring at them when they talk. What a doddle of a job.

2 hours work a day playing a set list of songs for years and years. Cushty.
As in nasty tasting or likely to make you ill? Or both? There's no popular food that I wouldn't try.
Yes, but if you host the morning show you have to get up horrendously early.

I used to work in IKEA doing that.
It wasn't easy.
Any job that involves dealing with the Great British public as your main duty is not stress-free.
Being oriental, I tend to eat everything!

Doesn't bother me at all Tbh. I find it easy to deal with and more often than not can turn a confrontational situation into a positive one.
Dealing with the general public is far from stress free I can assure you.
