Whats the most high risk and most shameful jobs a Sikh can do?

[genie]

Various instances we read articles time to time about a Sikh attacked here or a Sikh killed there doing a job. So I was thinking what is the worst jobs Sikhs are currently doing that are costing them their lives for little or no benefit and what are the most shameful jobs?

I would list being a 7-11 type store clerk / working in newsagent as a high risk of death or injury so many cases of people with Sikh names being killed.

And the most shameful jobs would be being enlisted in the punjab police and/or in Indian or British army where they are used as cannon fodder for our communities own persecution and fighting for other peoples illegal wars.

You've run together two very different things: high-risk and shameful. What does one necessarily have to do with the other?

Being a convenience or even normal grocery store clerk is usually shameful because you are violating Sikh tenets on Dharam di Kirat (Work in accordance with Righteousness). If Sikhs can't consume tobacco, alcohol, or other drugs, you're not allowed to sell them, either. If Sikhs can't consume Kutha (either Muslim meat or all meat, as per your belief), then you're not allowed to sell it either. Working in a strip club/cabaret/brothel as even a non-performer would be shameful as well.

And then on the other hand, there are the dangerous jobs which are in no way shameful. And I disagree with your characterization of them as "the worst", because any job that is not shameful is acceptable and honorable as Dharam di Kirat for a Sikh. For example lumberjack, which is America's most dangerous profession. Other dangerous jobs for men are
landscapers, linemen, farmers/ranchers, truck drivers, iron workers, garbagemen, roofers, pilots, fishers, and the most dangerous being loggers. Women don't usually do dangerous jobs.
