Best and Worst paying jobs

It's better to be a doctor than a dicer. Food preparation and serving remains the nation's lowest paid job. The medical field still offers the nine best paid jobs in the U.S. The U.S. government's newly released Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates was based on 2008 data. The surgeon makes an average of $206,770 a year. That puts surgeons above anesthesiologists to have the best paying job in the country. Internists now earn a bit more than prosthodontists. Prosthodontists are people who make and fit false teeth. The top 10 jobs rank the same as a year ago. The biggest change is a nearly $10,000 a year drop in pay for natural sciences managers. They are people who run labs and research facilities. The 25 best and 25 worst-paying jobs hasn't changed much. The best paying 25 jobs are all the same as last year with some minor rearrangements. The worst paying one job fell off the list Agriculture graders and sorters now make enough to rank as the 26th worst paid job in America. Postal workers and models will be happy to know that their average annual pay increased more than anyone else's. Postal workers make 23.2% more than a year ago. This brings them up to an annual salary of $54,550. Models didn't make nearly as much to begin with. Now they're up 20.4% to $30,160 a year. This is all I found out.
