Broadcaster:
A broadcaster is a member of the media who works in either radio or television. He is usually responsible for passing along relevant information. It has always been a high-stress, low-pay career.

The industry faces an unfavorable long-term job outlook, resulting in fewer opportunities for aspiring broadcasters. As a result, competition is high, and so is stress.
The median annual wage for a broadcaster is $55,380 and the projected job growth by 2022 is minus 13 percent.
Taxi driver:
One of the toughest jobs one can do is the job of a taxi driver. They drive people to and from the places they need to go. Taxi drivers must know their way around a city in order to take both residents and visitors to their destinations.
Taxi drivers have one of the highest rates of injuries of all occupations, largely due to car accidents. Driving for long period, especially in heavy traffic, can be stressful since they often have to pick up heavy luggage and packages.
They work from early morning to late night and sometimes when required they drive the taxi for the whole night in order to drop the passenger at his destination. They work during weekends and holidays as well. The hours they work are based on the needs of their clients.
