Default Piloting is the second most dangerous occupation

At least he has feelings, and probably a job and a life.



Feelings, yes (but not as bad as some of those blubbering guys you see on
reality tv nowadays --- even my girlfriend calls them sissyboys hehe).

Job, check. Keep that money coming in...

Life? That's debatable, but at least I leave my house on a regular basis

Seriously, back to the subject. The reason I am wondering about these
"workplace fatalities" was more like the cases I pointed out. 20% of the 15
fatalities for "computer specialists" were highway related. Like I said
before, it's enough just to be on the clock. Even if you are in an
accident, commit suicide, or are killed by a disgruntled coworker, you are
included in the statistic. Just because a few geeksquad kids get killed in
car wrecks doesn't mean that "computer specialist" is any more dangerous.
