What is the most difficult job for yoU? I think it is the Teachers who have the most difficult job. They are the one who shape us and give us the lessons that serve as the basic for the rest of our education stage. We learn to count, write, and speak correctly because of them. We take them for granted and forget them after school. THey are also the ones who have the least salary among all professions... it's sad. I can't imagine the world without teachers...

The most difficult job would be to become a President of a country. Especially a country that has long been laden with debt and problems like corruption. That no matter how a good President tries, he would still find it difficult to raise a country back to how it should be especially if there are other people in the government itself are not doing their duties only concentrating on the money they can get out of their jobs. If we notice, newly-elected Presidents can look fresh but even after a few months of stress can even sag the skin on their face, grey hair and they get older so quickly because they have to champion a whole nation.

I can't agree 100% that this is the most difficult job. Being a president of a country can be really taxing. It can also worsen and expedite hair loss. ;D I still have faith in you though PNoy! Good luck!

Okay, I will indulge you, though this is clearly a rhetorical question. I think the most important and most difficult job is being a person or a human. As human, we are very complex and we have a hard time dealing with ourselves as well as the people around us. Sometimes and in many situation, it is hard to truly ourselves becuase we feel that will be marginalized, singled out or persecuted on what we really are. So we conform and try our best to fit in though it is difficult thing to do. We survive by any means possible and try to keep a smile plaster on our faces. We deny things to others and to ourselves becuase we hate to feel weak. We are constantly tired and we wish for better things, though we have a hard time achieving it. But that doesn't kill our hopes and dreams. So we hang on and try to live in a complex world the best way we can. we hope not to have regrets when the last day comes and hope that we love and enrichment in our times on earth. Being human is not an occupation but it is a constant presence in our extension and everything we do is an extension of what we are.

I don't think that there is any one specific job that can be called most difficult. It also really depends on what you mean by most difficult. One job may take a lot of talent and concentration to do, like being a rocket scientist or something. But these types of jobs may be much more preferable to do and so jobs that the task is easier to do like being a bus driver, may be much more difficult to do in this sense. What I mean, in example, is that it may be pretty easy to drive a bus, but a bus driver has to deal with all those people all day, who are not always so kind and some are actually scary. I would consider this a hard job. I honestly do not think that it is that hard to be a teacher, the ones around here at the least. I am not talking about college professors. I highly respect their job, but when it comes to lower education, like highschool and below, a lot of times they don't even teach anything and they still are in good standing with their school. I was in a chemistry class in high school and we literally never used the lab. I literally learned no actual chemistry. I also took a second-year Spanish class in another school, and can't speak Spanish, even though I got an A grade. The "final" for that class at the end of the year was taking notes on a short documentary about Spain, which was in English by the way. These days, teachers will just pop in a movie at least once a week. It's just a time filler. This is not education and if the system doesn't change, then teachers should not get paid more, despite the growing claim that they should be. That is my opinion on that subject. But don't get me wrong, not all are like this, but the good ones are soooooo far and few. I'm just generalizing.

I don't think there is any job considered as the most difficult job. If we asked someone who likes to teach he/she will never find teaching as difficult. I believe if one is contented and happy with their job, the will find that every job is easy. There is no most difficult job in the world.(^^)

I agree with you that to be a teacher is a difficult job, because they have to educate future generations. Countries welfare depends on having well-educated people. Therefore the huge responsability of teachers. They need to be well formed in order to exercise their job. But not everywhere will be the teachers bad paid. There are exceptions.

I think the most difficult job would have to be being a parent. Not only are parents the provider of their children, but they are their teachers, nurses, disciplinarians, etc. They don't get paid for what they do either. Well, not with money anyway. They get love instead. Happy mylotting!

I do agree that teachers have difficult time doing their jobs, but I don't think that's the most difficult job you can find. I even think that the being a metro aide, where you have to clean the streets all day, is tougher than being a teacher and yet I still don't think that's the most difficult job in the world.

For me being a door-to-door salesman worst. How would you feel when you walk all day and make no sell or just 1-2 sells?

I believe that the is no such thing as THE most difficult job in the world because every occupation man has is essential to the other. There is no main point of comparison that I can consider.
