[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 773611, member: 12570"] This is how Wikipedia defines "dead end Job": A [B]dead end job[/B] is a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_(role)"][COLOR=#0645ad]job[/COLOR][/URL] in which there is little or no chance of progressing and succeeding into a higher paid position. Such work is usually unskilled and the phrase usually applies to those working as [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket"][COLOR=#0645ad]shelf stackers[/COLOR][/URL], [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleaner"][COLOR=#0645ad]cleaners[/COLOR][/URL], or other [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menial"][COLOR=#0645ad]menial[/COLOR][/URL] jobs where the pay is low, and the hours are long. I will concede that once we reach FT seniority driver that there is no where else to go within the hourly ranks and the hours are not 9-5 but the pay and benefit package are industry leading. I would certainly not classify a package car driver as a dead end job. [/QUOTE]
