Well obviously if it was about how enjoyable the job is and not...whatever standard they used...DGuller would not be #47

I wonder how they levied the criteria. They say they included hiring outlook but then mathematician, sociologist, geologist and historian make the top 30.

To be fair, I can't really compare online specialist feature writing with newspaper reporter. After all, I don't have to doorstep families who've just lost a loved on in a car crash one day, then report on pot-holes the next.
