"Here are some of the jobs an anxiety sufferer should, if he is the slightest bit sensible, avoid at all costs: high-security prison guard, coal miner, emergency room surgeon, offshore oil rig worker, Mafia henchman, CIA field operative, investigative journalist in Moscow, criminal court judge in Bogota, drug enforcement agent in Tijuana, rickshaw driver in New Delhi, political cartoonist in Pyongyang, and the opposition leader of any Central African nation."
-Daniel Smith, "Monkey Mind"
No joke, I routinely say the first five of these as careers I could never have. Honestly, just reading them written and then thinking about doing them, makes my heart beat a little faster.
