Cool Under Fire

MassMutual and Harris Interactive conducted a survey to see if they could draw correlations between job descriptions and how nervous people are about potential disabilities, ie: the financial impact of, say, getting hit by a truck. Turns out accountants are pretty sanguine about such things. Just 27 percent would worry they'd never be able to work again in the wake of a disability, the survey found. This earns them the designation "Cool Cucumber." Advertising and marketing professionals are the ones most anxious about the impact. They get the tag "Nervous Nellies."

Can you just imagine the meeting where they came up with this?
