carpal tunnel can be a killer

an online survey reveals techies believe their job to be pretty stressful
Indeed, four-fifths of IT consultants "feel stressed before they even enter the workplace", while a quarter of the poor buggers "are under such enormous pressure to perform at work they have taken time off suffering with stress".
i'll stipulate that there can be some ergonomic issues with the job, but this bears striking resemblance to an earlier 'woe is us' piece by a reporter.
but to put it in perspective, how about jobs where life-and-death is on the line?
like ER doctors, military men, first responders...
