What's the most common job in Louisiana, Oilfield worker?...Construction worker? Truck driver? Commercial fisherman?...Nope! The job that's currently most common in the Bayou State was the nation's most common job in the late 1970's. Npr.org reports the most common job in the US is truck driver. That's logical, since it can't be outsourced to another country. The most common job in the Us was secretary in 1978. More people in Louisiana currently hold secretarial positions than any other job. Surprised? Me, too.
