I think we all need to memorize this list from the article you linked to, for the next time we hear about how dangerous cops’ jobs are. They were number:

15 Police and sheriff’s patrol officers

behind:

I guess none of their lives matter?

I like the Refuse / Recycling workers at #5, because for the lack of a better term it’s basically a low caste job here in the US. Nobody really gives a shit about them until they go on strike, then shit gets real quick. Nobody creates reality shows about sanitation workers and nobody aspires to that position in life, but it’s necessary, remarkably dangerous and society functionally falls apart pretty quick without them.
