#28I find it interesting that many of the IT/Engineering/Tech jobs have a high degree of connectivity to elementary/middle school teachers. So the high salaries are helping to balance out the crap salaries.

#29Is it me or the visualization is very hard to follow? E.g. if you highlight the 'Dancers and Choreographers' section, it's not at all clear that more female dancers marry male welders.
