If you thought journalists in America drink too much coffee, apparently our colleagues across the Atlantic Ocean are even more caffeinated.
In a survey done by the U.K. press release firm Pressat, which spoke to 10,000 professionals, journalists are wired the most of all professions.
It seems that drinking coffee is a necessity on the job in a wide variety of professions. The highest consumers, sinking over four cups daily, were those with stressful careers: journalists consumed the most, followed closely by police officers and teachers. Could it be that being overstretched or working late pushed the workforce to consume more caffeine?

Other professions found to be coffee addicts were plumbers, nurses, and drivers. Note: I put my cup down while writing this.
