I've realized that my job is really easy. Doesn't take a university graduate to do it and the only exception is that it's tedious work. Even if there is a problem, I'll just ask the boss and he'll solve it... very nice guy. It's a little embarrassing, but I rate mine at a solid 2/5. How do you rate your job?
I don't think the work load I have is that big anymore, but a lot of people fail at trading so I just put 5/5.
0/5 I literally spend 5 hours doing work. I wrote programs that write programs to do my work. Writing the the programs took a while, but I didn't tell anyone I wrote the programs that write the programs. So everytime I get a new assignment I write a new template fix the stuff that is broken and I am done.
1 to 1.5 'ish. Work at Kroger's, dairy dept. Lot of people can do the job, but it always takes a while before they become decent closers.
I'm somewhat awesome at what i do. However, i think ive only got another 4-5 years at this pace in the tank.
Learning how to do my job? 4/5... Mostly because of 10 years of college.. Breaking into the field 5/5 Actual difficulty 2/5... Only hard because have to cya when dealing with millions of other peoples money, and have to massage many egos. Overall very lucky.
Who is Dorrell Moary? Is he the black Daryl Morey? Having said that, I'm at a 3/5 right now but will move up to a 5/5 really soon. Looking forward to the $$, not so much the !!.
My job isn't necessarily difficult, but the tools I use are proprietary and hard to learn and master. So it's specialized and complicated in a tedious/redundant sort of way. Now, the people work with, on the other hand, make my job far, far more difficult than it should be.

What I do requires both technical and people skills. Not that many people have both. Nerds usually don't know how to act and the outgoing people usually talk out of their butts. So I would say a 4 because I am replaceable and I'm not a 1 percenter.
The problem with this is that when you're doing something very difficult, you tend to work around people that do the same thing you do. That really makes it seem not all that special. Being a doctor, lawyer, or whatever doesn't seem so special/hard when all your friends are doing it too. In reality, it's very hard. I'm a 5/5.
I voted Morey. Honestly, what does the guy do besides run a business and make deals? It takes a specific knack to do it well. I'm a network tech. But more specifically, I work in prisons. So while I do things that I find easy with my level of experience, it takes a specific life experience to walk through general population solo and not **** your pants or, at least, not look like you're about to, making yourself a target.
