And the answer is... Hand molders.

Um... What is an occupation least expected to see ranked 8th on a list of suicide by occupations, Alex?

I spent a good part of my career as a broker for a large broker in NYC....horrible business, I knew when I was 35-40 it was a young man’s game and once you hit late 40s you were a dinosaur and they look for reasons to fire you. Horrible, Horrible way to make a living.
