9. Butchers
Despite of the very minimal increase of the pay of the majority of the butchers wherein from last year’s pay of 29,150, and an increased of 6 cents that makes it $ 29, 156. Now that the centralized system for butchering is being implemented in all supermarket chains, there is a great decreased in the demands for butcher’s job.
8. Dishwashers
The effect of the recession is being felt more in the food industry for the past years. Hence, the pay for the dishwashers this year has decreased instead of an increase. The last year pay recorded was $18,053 compared to the current salary this year of $18,044. People tend to eat less outside their home, and would just stay and cook their own meal. This job is one of the difficult jobs because of the tough condition that they have to endure for hours in order to earn the decent amount of income.
7. Meter Reader
There is only a 3 percent increased in this year’s current pay of $35.71. There is no reason for any meter reader to rejoice.

6. Waiters/Waitresses
There are no changes on the pay; it has maintained the flat rate compensation just like the butcher, and dishwasher jobs. For this year, it offers $18,088 take home pay and it’s the third job under the food industry which is alarming because of the gradual decrease in the demand of labor for this job. In fact, majority of the restaurants do not recommend increases or appraisals anymore for their waiters and waitresses otherwise they would hire another people for this position.
5. Newspaper Reporter
This is another job on this list that has a 3% increased this year wherein it pays $35,275. Nevertheless, the fact remains that this is one of the most demanding jobs because of the stresses that a reporter could get. They have to be on duty in whatever situations, whether conditions, and life-threatening locations because, it’s their job to keep a better scope for the rating of the network company or newspaper that they are working with. In fact, there are bankruptcy and merges that had been reported that worsen the total compensation for this position.
4. Oil Rig Worker
It has maintained a flat rate pay of $32, 132 despite of the fact that oil industry business is booming and progressing rapidly.

In fact, the fatality rate is higher because of the long hours of exposure to the oil.
3. Military Personnel

1. Lumberjacks
There are no changes on the pay, and if there is, it still offers a flat rate pay. This job has been consistent for the past years as one of the worst jobs. Aside from the fact that you have to work outside in a very risky and dangerous condition wherein some were injured and have broken their legs, yet the compensation is still low despite of the threat that it has in the lives of the lumberjacks or better known as loggers.
