[quote=Anonymous]Stress is relative and in the eye of the beholder.  Approached from that perspective, the answer may not be to find a job where you can loaf along and still get paid, but to ensure the development of healthy coping skills.  Different personalities perceive and react to stress differently.  Something one person finds debilitating may be energizing and exciting to someone else.  For example, firefighting and law enforcement are extremely stressful at times, but firefighters and LEOs live, in part, for the adrenaline rush the job sometimes provides.

Or, plan to run your own business, where you control every aspect of the work you do.  Even then, you'll not be able to control external forces like whether customers want your product or service, so stress may result if income proves inadequate.

It's better to learn to deal with stress through adaptation, flexibility, and other healthy personal characteristics than it will be to hope to find a stressless environment for one's working life.
