The most difficult profession?

Burn Unit Nurse - If you have never been to University or any other burn center and seen the table where they scrub the patient to get the dead skin off and imagine in your head the screaming that goes on, even being higher than a kite. It is 100+ degrees in that room and it is not a job I would ever even want to dream about doing.

neonatal intesive care unit (nicu)

at least with dying old people, you know they lived their lives. but one a baby or child is hurting, suffering and or dying, there is no good way to look at it. (unless you are a pro abortionist). i couldnt handle seeing hurting children (and their families)

not much else would be that bad.

A huge 2nd. My daughter spent almost 3 months in the NICU and to watch people loose their children on a somewhat regular basis will haunt my wife and I for the rest of our lives. I'm not sure how NICU nurses do it.

Why is it so hard for people to deal with death? Newsflash- we all die. Today, tomorrow, whenever it is, it happens, to everyone. Pain and suffering is part of life. Tough jobs? How about a rancher who has to get up at the asscrack of dawn and feel his way in the dark out to the feilds to get to his livestock before they freeze or starve. How about the oil feild worker out in the middle of effin nowhere working up close and personal with equipment and forces that will kill him and his buddies in a heartbeat, or cost him an arm or leg for a small mistake.
Life is tough, work for a lot of people, is tough. Dealing with death, pain, and suffering, is not the toughest thing going.

I have found being a gun dealer has it's down sides. Trying to explain ATF&E rules as well as CBI rules and some customers think I make up the rules. I had one customer that thought it was my policy to hold guns for 8 days.
