'Safe' Jobs

I don't know if there are any safe jobs. Government used to be viewed as safe but now has hiring freezes, wage freezes and layoffs, just like any other entity. Healthcare seems to be viewed as safe, but people are advocating medical tourism, so not so safe.

I've seen a few ads locally for attorneys that weren't posted by agencies; however, I had an invitation on LinkedIn to link with another recruiter I know. I don't think she has jobs to fill right now, since nobody seems to.

What's the safest job possible? Bartender, but not at a trendy spot? Barber? Grocery clerk?
