Electricians also have a tough and injury-prone job — with the risk of electrical shocks, cuts, burns and falls. Long periods of standing and kneeling are also common, which can be exhausting.
Due to the unknown number of electrical issues that might happen each day, the job could also involve evenings, weekends, holidays and extended hours. Unfortunately, spending large amounts of time connecting electricity could be simultaneously disconnecting a marriage.

Reviewing returns, conducting audits and identifying what’s owed can be “taxing” on a marriage, according to Zippia research. During tax season, a typical 40-hour workweek can balloon into a ton of overtime and multiply stress for tax professionals.
Couple extra hours and tension with harried and demanding customers, and you have a recipe for disaster — one that, along with finances, can negatively affect a marriage, particularly if it’s already fragile.

Supervising probationers can be daunting and draining to a marriage — and result in a higher divorce rate, according to Zippia. Much of a probation officer’s time is spent documenting and evaluating individuals who might have difficult personalities and habits. Plus, the job often requires working overtime.
Understandably, when officers come home from work they might be short on words or edgy, which can cause tension in a marriage.

Administrative services managers have a lot to juggle. They’re the ones who have to supervise employee activities; keep accurate, up-to-date records; set and monitor goals and plan budgets. They’re also on call to handle problems, according to the Department of Labor.
Stressful daytime duties and after-hours calls might damage a marriage, so it might not be surprising that the Zippia analysis revealed these professionals age 30 and younger have a higher divorce rate.

they make alot of money though I could live with that!
OMG I THOUGH MUSICIANS WOULD BE #1 BY A MILE! TRUST ME ON THIS ONE! LOL
to bad he's making money! if he's hanging at strip clubs that's different!
At a glance there are no safe occupations.
What about dentists?
Your acting profession isn't even mentioned, nor is modeling, or singing - why not ?
I agree, Frank. I’m an underwater mess kit repair specialist and that profession is fraught with people experiencing marital problems....
because most of you are queer anyway!
I am trying to find out where my daughter is Aziza Id Deen,who was a passenger at 4:05 Detroit time.
She send me a text that she was being picked.
Due to being at my nurse supervisor job,I didn’t get the text until recently.
I need to know who picked her up and where was she dropped off

All I learned is that if you make more than $90000 a year , your divorce rate is less than 10 percent . If you make less , better get a job at Walmart or be a waitress at Denny’s.
That's because they marry gold diggers.
That’s right. That’s the way it should be. At the end of the day two things happen, and one is guaranteed. The guarantee is this: Even a saint will make you nuts... that said, good luck finding one to marry. And two, you will end up breaking down on the side of the highway at some point in time; even brand new top of the line autos breakdown at times. And, I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather be broken down in a new Mercedes than an old rusted out Ford Escort. I’ve been in both situations in life, and believe me, having the new or newer luxury vehicle changes EVERYTHING about your rescue. After the Escort incident, I said to myself; “Self, no one is worth too hard of an emotional sweat, especially if you’re still on the side of the highway, and he’s... heaven only knows where. See, the one with the money will be at “heaven only knows where” too. But, I at least I won’t be stuck on overnight on the highway. And sure, I may have missed my date with the pool boy, but he gets paid for the job either way and he’ll be there tomorrow again anyway. If he has an attitude about it, he can resign on his own accord, or I can force it; because that big ol’ lonely house, luxury car and large inground pool that sports some lovely gardens on its shoulders, attracts ALL kinds of handsome new employment seekers.

I had a good Marriage of a Childhood Sweet Heart and 3 kids. GrandKids and Great Grands. Then my husband of 58 years died. I married a man, my age, he had been married 3 times. His habits got him Divorced. He didn't love anyone. Just wanted me to pay for it all. Better off by myself.
fn ganesh! what kind of name is that for you to complain?
It’s not the job, it’s the person. Marriage is hard, raising kids is hard. Why do you suppose people do this in the first place? I think we are all a little delusional, and have expectations that exceed the reality. Women particularly, are fed a mound of crap about relationships. Myth, cultural mores, lead many to misery. A favorite memory I recall from a young man (when I was also young) was him saying, “ You’re really gonna like this”. Uh, well, one of us liked it.
All jobs that require travel and a lot of time away from lead to affairs in a marriage which lead to divorce. It has nothing to do with the job per say, it has to do with people's inability to be committed to one person, the person they married.
How true!!! So easy for these people to lead double lives! I personally know a married person who said they have cheated on their spouse numerous times while traveling and staying in hotels while their wife is home working and with the kids. Safely tucked away so they can do their thing freely! This person makes great money and travels a lot for a large university. Has no shame!
BOILERMAKERS HAVE LONG WORK DAYS (10-12hrs) SOMETIME FOR MONTHS ON END, OFREN WORKING NIGHT SHIFTS AND OFTEN OUT OF TOWN FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. I CAN BARELY REMEMBER MY CHILDREN GROWING UP. I MISSED SCHOOL THINGS MY CHILDREN PARTICIPATED IN AND AFTER MY SECOND DIVORCE I BURIED MYSELF IN WORK TO TRY AND KEEP MY SANITY. THE DRINKING AND ALL OF THE ABOVE NEARLY KILLED ME AS SURE AS IT KILLED MY MARRIAGES. MY 40 YEARS IN THIS TRADE WENT BY IN A FLASH AND RATHER THAN PLACING CURRENT EVENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF MONTH OR YEAR EVENTS WERE OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH WHERE I WAS WORKING AT THE TIME.
EXAMPLE: 9-11 HAPPENED WHEN I WAS WORKING AT CALVERT CLIFFS ON THE FIRST STEAM GENERATOR CHANGEOUT, 7-12'S AFTER WORKING 6-10'S FOR A YEAR IN BALTIMORE.

That really sucks. I can relate when things went wrong I always say where was dad he was not there.
I stuck it out but now it all was for nothing financially and all other ways too.
I must say that this is a very discouraging article for someone deciding what to do in life. As for an engineer, I know a retired engineer who has been happily married for over 57 yrs. Your article needs to give advice or suggestions on how to make the marriage work; not quit or even start working at, which most of these jobs are, a high paying job.
Include Jesus Christ in your marriage!
Make it s cord of three!!!
I married a man who believed in God Almighty. I thought that would work. We were married by my Pastor in Church. The red flags were-- he could recite all the Bible. Never lived it. He was a Narcissist. I was a home town girl who did everything to make him happy. I was married to the first man for 57 years. He was married at least twice or more. Claimed it was all their fault. Red Flag. He didn't Love anyone but himself. After 2.5 years and several thousand dollars, I finally got rid of him. He was a Liar and a Thief. Loving God wasn't enough for him.
Yeah, I call BS on most of that list, excluding the Military. I would cite ANY job that takes a person away from their spouse for extended periods to be a major cause of divorce. My field was railroading but I had employment on a railroad that kept me close to home. Still married!
However, those working for neighboring railroads that take men (and women) away for extended periods cause much stress in a relationship and the divorce rate for railroaders is very high.
Marriage is about commitment!
Employment is about commitment!
Learning to balance these two is the secret to a successful life!
After being in the service businesses for 25 years and facings these challenges every day the balancing was intense!
Retirement solved the challenge.
Have a wonderful life!
