In terms of alcoholism the top three are:

1. Chef
2. Police Officer
3. Pilot

The common factor seems to be shift work, high adrenaline towards the end of the shift, and the ability to be able to sleep or not, after work. ie. drink a boot full to get a good night's sleep. Unfortunately the reverse is usually case.
