Surgeons usually work in sterile environments while performing surgery and may stand or long periods of time (“Physicians and Surgeons”). The areas the a surgeon works in needs to be very well lit so that they can clearly see what they are doing and everything in the area needs to be sterile to prevent infection. However, pilots work primarily in an aircraft. They may spend a considerable amount of time away from home because of overnight layovers. Many pilots have variable schedules (“Airline and Commercial Pilots”). A pilot sits in a plane when they are flying and after a pilot has a long flight, they can have a few days off after they get home. Working in an airplane compared to being in a very sterile, well lit environment, commercial pilots and surgeons have very different work
