University professors are at the pinnacle of the education field. Their students are largely those who choose the classes they attend, and thus want to be in class. Unlike elementary and secondary educators, the performance of college professors isn't evaluated based on standardized tests. University professors also have the opportunity to earn tenure, which guarantees lifetime employment.

The U.S. Fire Administration reported 81 on-duty fatalities in 2011 and 77 in 2012, making this one of the most dangerous career paths.

The dangers of serving as enlisted military personnel are well known at times of conflict, especially while on active duty deployment.

Organizations around the nation work to help military personnel land jobs after their service, but it can often be an uphill climb.
