I agree, but with the caveat that it has some well paying jobs too.
I also reject the impliciation that difficult = bad. There's no gain in your mentioning that it's difficult, to make your point.
Evan Cook
No, it's a term that is abused by marketers. Just because I happen to be in a STEM field does not mean I make little money.
Hudson King
Difficult jobs that pay well are fine. Most "STEM" careers have poor employment and pay prospects despite being very mentally demanding, however.

Is the pay really bad? I've been met with pretty fair rates so far.

and no, this does not hold true in all cases, there are exceptions to every rule, including this generally true statement.

So what's an easy job that pays well?
Caleb Hall
Define bad pay.. If I can live off of it I really don't give a shit.
