Usually teachers IMO. That is a stressful job that many people don't fully appreciate. So is being a cop. But I will also say that sometimes people who gravitate towards authoritative jobs are more interested in the power they wield than in helping people. And it's those people that make it more difficult for everyone else in the profession to get the respect they deserve.

Yeah, teachers are very unappreciated. It comes form moody kids that don't like school or learning. Cops have it rough too. Being a lifeguard I've also gotten some crazy stuff; I've been cussed at for calling people out of the water due to storms. While some people who shoot for these kinds of jobs are more interested in the power there are others (I for one) who are in it to help people and some to scrape up enough money to get by. But yeah there are always those people on the power trips that make people want to be disrespectful.

I can definatly see where you're coming from. It kind of is about how the individual acts too. And it could also be where the person is working at; some schools may have a tougher crowd than others.
