Britain's Most Desired Jobs I am quiet heartened by the results, although I'd like astronaut to be higher. |

I'm a bit surprised at the miners and call centre workers! |

One is almost extinct and the other gets verbal abuse and hung up on all day, and you're surprised? My eldest has expressed an interest in writing as a career. Whether that means journalist or novelist I'm not sure, but then neither is he. |

Surprised architect or engineer didn't make it in at all. I think it really shows how little interest people have for how stuff works. Also accountant? Estate agent? Really? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I imagine that people associate Accountancy and Estate Agents with relatively high pay (or flash cars at any rate) which may explain a few things. As for how stuff works, I agree. Where were the scientific jobs (excluding astronaut)? I hope they weren't all lumped together as academic. Also, I can get Author but Librarian seems a bit odd for number 2. |
