"..Well, There's The Juice.....We've Still Got Really Great Juice !!..."

The folks at Manpower have overlooked something.

They most recently published a list of the 10 “most difficult” jobs to fill in the workplace.

And while I can see where some of these occupations would be a tough sell, others seem like they would be fairly easy to fill, given the number of out of work folk looking.

But, I think they neglected to mention a couple I would think automatically qualify and one, absolutely difficult job to fill didn’t even make the list.

See what you think.
Here’s Manpower’s top ten:

1. Sales representative

2. Teacher

3. Mechanic

4. Technician

5. Management/executive

6. Truck driver

7. Driver/delivery

8. Accountant

9. Laborer

10. Machine operator

Now, petty hair splitting about those ten aside, here’s a few I think would be more difficult to find qualified and/or willing workers to take on than accounting or truck driving:

Naomi Campbell’s anger management therapist

Joel Osteen’s dental hygienist

Bill and Hillary’s marriage counselor

George W’s PR guy or gal

Katie Couric’s agent

Oh…and I would imagine the toughest of all, based on these news stories from the last couple of days:


TAMPA, Fla. -- A man fishing golf balls out of a pond at a Tampa country club was attacked by an 8-foot alligator over the weekend.
Dwight Monreal, 62, was wading in a pond at the Tampa Palms Golf and Country Club Saturday afternoon when the alligator latched onto his left arm and tried to drag him underwater.
Authorities said he was able to wrestle himself free, but he was left with a dislocated shoulder and several puncture wounds where the animal bit him.

Granted, it might be tough to find good teachers or a decent mechanic.

But who’re you gonna find to take on the main gig at the Florida Department of Tourism?

And chads?

Don't get me started.
