Despite what society may tell you, plenty of great jobs&nbsp;don't require a college degree. If you are starting out in your career,&nbsp;looking for the right career path, and considering skipping college and just jumping in to the work force, you might be on the right track. According to the the U.S. Department of Labor, 2 out of every 3 jobs only require on-the-job training. Taking into account the debt that you may acquire after paying for college tuition and the four years of your life that you will be delaying gainful employment, it may be a good idea to bypass college and work on landing one of these highest paying jobs without a degree.&nbsp;If you are more established in your career and are looking for a change and want a top paying job, but never earned your Bachelor's Degree, you can use this list a resource to discover the great, fun, high paying jobs that only require experience and specialty training. Some of the best jobs in America don't require a BA or a BS.The high paying jobs on this list are not necessarily easy--most of them still require specialty skills, but if you are smart and start at the bottom and work your way up you can land a great job without going to college. Consider this: if you start working right after you finish High School, you will already have four years of work experience under your belt by the time your peers graduate college. If you get focused early and decide what career path will land you one of these top paying jobs, you can get ahead and avoid debt.*Salary information for this list is based on figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for 2013

These are the top ten rarest jobs in America. These careers employ less than 4,000 people nationwide. From the top sciences like astronomer and mathematician to wood pattern maker, these jobs will make you stop and say &quot;wow, somebody does that for a living?&quot; If you want to embark on one of these uncommon careers, you'll definitely have some learning to do. The rarest occupations in the country (and the world, for that matter) aren't easy. You'll probably have to get some special training before you get to give these a go. The best part about some of these rare careers and professions? They can pull in some major dough. Take airplane crop-dusters: the stats are hard to find because they usually freelance, but those guys can make anywhere from $80,000 to $100,000 per year. Then there's underwater welders who not only do they pull down $80-100k, they also use fire....underwater! What are rare jobs? If you think about it, some of the highly sought after gigs, like being a pro referee to bei a geographer, are pretty rare.

Somewhere between your dream job and your real job are the best jobs in the world; job titles that some extremely lucky people actually have. While some of the coolest careers also rank among the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/rarest-jobs-in-america/nicolebreanne">world&#39;s rarest jobs</a>, there are plenty of dream jobs available for the taking (or at least for the applying and the interviewing).

What would be your dream job? What would you love to spend every day doing?

A list of the most common jobs in America. These are the most popular careers within the United States. If you're looking for a job, this is where you will find the most peers. Note that this list does not in any way rank &quot;job competition&quot; as it does not take into account the number of jobs available. Nonetheless, it is interesting to see where the bulk of the American workforce lies, and which fields have the most employed workers. With unemployment always an issue for at least some of us in the country, it's useful to see what fields seem to be the most populated. Hopefully this list will be helpful for anyone who's on the job hunt.What are the most common jobs in American? What are some typical professions in the US? These are some of the most popular jobs in the US, compiled in one <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/jobs-that-no-longer-exist/coy-jandreau?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">list of jobs</a> many Americans have.On December 5th, 2016, Amazon revealed they will be launching a new grocery store called Amazon Go that will eliminate the need for cashiers. Given that cashiers are the second most common job in America, what does that mean for the future of that profession? &nbsp;

With the rapid advances in modern technology, more jobs and new opportunities that would have seemed like science fiction a few years ago are becoming a reality. However, as we evolve, a lot of jobs people used to do back in the day are becoming obsolete. This list of jobs that no longer exist show the examples of old positions that have given way to new opportunities on the job search.Some of these jobs already seem insane to us – it's crazy to us now that PEOPLE ever did these tasks and not machines. It only leaves us to wonder what jobs will no longer exist ten years from now, and seem odd in the future.

Oh, hipsters; you thrift store loving, American beer drinking, permanent look of disdain having folks are such an interesting slice of society. There are very few popular professions that really suit the temperament of a hipster; jobs that involve being nice to people, waking up before noon, wearing a uniform, and/or&nbsp;using the art history degree they toiled away at are all strictly unsuitable for the modern hipster. That said, you have to wonder: what are the best jobs for hipsters?Think criticism, think alcohol, think endless opportunities to talk about yourself and you will start to conceive of jobs hipsters have.

Unless you have that dream job where you work your own high-paying hours designing illusions for top tier magicians on the Vegas strip... you probably have something about your job you hate. Some of us work under the most employee-hating conditions imaginable (Wal-Mart *cough*), some of us work 3 jobs just to keep the lights on and some of us do ok but have to spend all the hours of our lives sitting in flourescent-lit cubes. What's the worst thing about your job? And please, add yours, because I only scratched the surface here. Vote... and ADD.

If you&#39;re getting down in the dumps <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-and-_39_s-the-worst-thing-about-your-job-/desertrat89?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">about your job</a>, look at the silver lining:&nbsp;At least you don&#39;t have one of these career paths. If, by chance, you do, it definitely sucks to be you.&nbsp;The most dismal jobs require intense physical labor and harsh, gross, and embarrassing conditions.

We all know the economy's been taking a few gut-punches in recent years, and stories about &quot;job creation&quot; have become a staple in the news. Complicating the generally crap availability of worthwhile employment opportunities, a flood of advances in artificial intelligence and cheap robotics technology have provoked some rather scary conversations lately about the possibility of almost all routinized labor being replaced within the next 20 to 30 years by computerized and automated workers. Which jobs and careers are robots poised to take from us mere mortals in the not so distant future?This scenario obviously has its pros and cons, but what we all want to know most urgently is, of course, &quot;Will my own job be replaced by a robot some day soon?&quot; Good question. Which jobs are most likely to be taken over by robots? Which jobs are the most secure from robot infiltration? Will service robots eventually, creepily outnumber actual human citizens? Scroll down to discover the answers to these questions and cast your votes for the jobs you think will disappear thanks to advances in technology. (I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords.)

Have you ever considered the irony in rushing home from a long day at work, just to watch a TV show about work? Whether we love or hate our jobs, or even get sick of coworkers, the first priority for many of us is turning on the tube after a day at the office, often watching a show that takes place on the job. So, what is it about these <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/workplace-comedy-tv-shows-sitcoms-list/ranker-tv" target="_blank">workplace TV series</a> we like so much, when they really just take us straight back to work? Perhaps it's simply due to having&nbsp;so many great shows currently airing, many of which deal with work-related situations.&nbsp;It's true, of the hundreds of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-shows-currently-on-the-air?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">TV shows airing</a> weekly, there's a long list of current shows about work, long hours, coworkers, etc. Whether it's an escape from our own jobs or we truly enjoy putting in the hours, we love these kinds of TV shows. From the popular Silicon Valley to the always-funny&nbsp;Bob's Burgers, dramas, cartoons,&nbsp;and sitcoms based in the workplace&nbsp;account for some of TV's top shows. But just which current shows about work are the best?&nbsp;Vote up your favorite workplace <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-shows-currently-on-the-air" target="_blank">TV series currently on air</a> from the list below, and vote any down that you're not a fan of.

Memes

As you&#39;ll see from the photos below, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/misunderstood-celebrity-scandals/donn-saylor?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">pretty much everyone</a> thinks job interviews stink. They stink&nbsp;for the person conducting the interview, and they really stink&nbsp;for the person interviewing. The interviewee lies much as possible to seem qualified for the job, while the interviewer asks&nbsp;a series of questions that they don&#39;t even have the answers to.&nbsp;It&#39;s a grueling process, and yet, nobody has come up with a better way to go about hiring people. If you&#39;re currently in the midst of looking for a job, hopefully&nbsp;these funny job interview memes will help cheer you up. If you have a job, please let these pictures&nbsp;serve as a friendly reminder to be nice to the people looking for a job. Seriously, they&#39;re extremely fragile right now.

Money

If you haven’t heard, millennials are broke. And the only 20 and early 30-somethings who are actually keeping their heads above water are doing so because they’ve figured out the best side hustles for making a nominal amount of cash. Side hustles, or an extra <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-jobs-in-the-world">job</a> for all you grandpas out there, are how millennials make money – because they definitely can’t afford rent, bills, and a weekly brunch on whatever salary their normal job provides. The economy is always in flux, but the 2008 housing crisis forced everyone to either take on a second job, or to change their retirement plans indefinitely. In its most simplistic terms, that means that there were no “real” jobs waiting for millennials when they got out of college. Now the only way to live is to adopt a side hustle. Are you ready to step into the world of millennial finances?The most important part about having a side hustle is for you not to be embarrassed about having to make some money on the side. (Hey, some people even like their side hustle so much they can <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/how-to-quit-your-job/ashley-reign">quit their job</a>.) Anyone who says they don’t have to tighten their belts is either lying through their teeth or they have a trust fund and they’ll be feeling the burden soon enough. Whether you’re a millennial looking for ideas on how to make some extra money on the side, or you’re just intrigued at what young people are doing for money, all of these are earnest, and viable ways of making a living in a time when it’s very hard to make money. Vote on the best side hustles for millennials,&nbsp;that is if you have the time to take a break from one of your three jobs.&nbsp;

Anyone who’s looked for a job knows that in most cases they are up against several other hungry people vying for the same spot. Therefore, it’s not only important to stand out from the crowd, it’s important to know what a potential employer looks for in a new hire. What makes a good employee? What are hiring managers and bosses looking for in their staff?Are you smart? Are you punctual? Do you take criticism well? Are you a team player? Are you eager to learn? All of these are characteristics that catch an employer’s eye as they make their way through the hiring process. And if you’re wondering what else will draw attention to you as you make your way through the business world, look no further than the list we compiled below. These workplace assets will not just help you get hired, but make you a great employee as you progress through the ranks and build your career.If you're wondering how to be a good employee, take a look at the traits below and see how others have voted. Then, think about what you think makes an employee the best he or she can be and upvote the qualities and traits that are best for professionals in the workplace. Don't see the employee traits you think are most essential? Add them for others to vote on and tell us in the comments what makes these qualities so important!

A list of the highest paying jobs in America. These are the most lucrative careers in the United States. If you're looking for a job, these careers are where you'll make the most money.

Either way, it's interesting to see where the money is within our American work force. With unemployment always an issue for at least some of us in the country, it's useful to see what fields will pay the most bills.

Whether you&#39;re a little hungover or simply need a break from <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/funny-workplace-memes/nathandavidson" target="_blank">office life</a>, sometimes you need a good excuse&nbsp;for calling in&nbsp;sick last minute. While it&#39;s uncouth to lie to your boss or supervisor habitually, the occasional <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/things-people-lie-about/elise" target="_blank">little white lie</a>&nbsp;probably&nbsp;won&#39;t cost you your job as long as you have some believable sick day excuses. If you just want a day to lounge in bed and watch <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-daytime-talk-shows/ranker-tv" target="_blank">television</a>, here you&#39;ll find a list of ailments that aren&#39;t terribly hard to fake.&nbsp;

Good sick day excuses are generally pretty simple, but also need to be&nbsp;justifiable reasons to spend a day on the couch. The key is finding an illness that&#39;s debilitating, but temporary. Things like food poisoning, a high fever, or a migraine can render you useless for a 24 hour period only.&nbsp;Therefore, your boss and coworkers won&#39;t get suspicious&nbsp;when you show up to the office all better the following day.

You have sick leave&nbsp;for a reason, so you might as well use it, even if it&rsquo;s because you drank too many margaritas on Taco Tuesday. If you&#39;re wondering how to call in sick, you&#39;ll find a great list of what to say below.
