Stress vs. Stresses
A job billed as "character-building" may be one of unending stress.
In the sentence above, why "stress" does not ends with an "es"—as plural?
To put the sentence as a whole, this is what I would have said:
A job billed as "character-building" may be one of unending stresses.
Thanks in advance,
