美国收入最高的前五个职业和收入最低的五个职业

It's still better to be a doctor than a dicer. Food preparation and serving remains the nation's lowest-paid line of work, while the medical field still offers the nine best-paid jobs in the U.S.

According to the U.S. government's newly released Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates, based on 2008 data, the typical surgeon makes an average of $206,770 a year. That puts surgeons above anesthesiologists to have the best-paying job in the country.

外科医生是美国收入最高的职业，医药行业占据了前10名的9名，收入最低的是服务和食品行业了。

并没有提到计算机相关专业。
