Question 15 of 24
Your day job's hazard level?
Pick one to continue — the dead don't get to skip homework.
Some paychecks come with a body count
💀 A grim little fact
The deadliest job in America isn't cop or firefighter — it's logging. Loggers die at a rate of roughly 99–111 per 100,000 workers, about 23 times the average job. Second place goes to commercial fishing (~87 per 100,000). Falling trees, chainsaws, and remote sites where 'call an ambulance' means 'in about an hour' add up fast.
Logging: ~23× the fatality rate of the average job — America's deadliest.
🔮 Myth vs. Morty
Myth: "Office jobs are totally safe." Physically, you're unlikely to be flattened by a spreadsheet — but the desk has a slow-motion revenge arc via sitting, stress, and vending-machine cuisine. Different timeline, same accountant. The forest kills quickly; the cubicle just takes the scenic route.
Morty respects a hazardous job. Great for repeat business.
