While most of
14、 the highest-paying non-desk jobs are medical professions that require a doctoral or professional degree, there are 170 non-desk professions that pay $15 per hour or more, do not require a bachelors degree for a typical entry-level position, and have seen at least 6 percent job growth over the last
15、four years.

16、 the healthiest areas of job growth year after year are in professions that dont require workers to sit in front of computer monitors and phones for 40 hours a week.
