Five (5): Mechanic, Registered Nurse, Professor, State/Local Law Enforcement, Truck Driver
Four (4): Factory Worker, Medical Doctor, Paramedic, Politician
Most of the less-than-six-skill careers have bonuses (factory workers, nurses, professors, doctors, and truck drivers get two secondary activities [either immediately or in their second term], law enforcement gets +1 Initiative in their second term, and politicians can't be drafted) - only the mechanic and paramedic don't have something to compensate for the lost skill(s). Well, other than being the person everyone wants to keep alive so they can fix things (mechanic) and being the person trained to keep people alive (paramedic).
