Core Jobs

"Those jobs that would afford one to live a middle class life in the United States."

Core Jobs is a term coined by Jay Anderson, longtime financial leader in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and the current President and CEO of Pittsfield Cooperative Bank. Anderson has used the term countless times in discussions in the community, in his role as chairman of the Pittsfield Economic Revitalization Corporation and during appearances on media programs, such as Good Morning Pittsfield on WTBR-FM and Pittsfield Community Television. Further context for this description comes as the number of jobs available in the current economy, while providing income for employees, do not offer enough pay and/or benefits to allow an employee to provide for a respectable quality of life. For example, as large retail big box stores continue to expand further and dominate local markets, they have become large employers in the regions in which they are located. However, these retailers (such as Walmart) have been criticized for paying low wages as a part of a profit-enhancing strategy. Jobs in the service sector, including retail, hospitality, and tourism have been often criticized also as the kind of jobs that do not fit the "core job" description.

Pete Job

When you get too spicy during a foot job that you miss and the penis goes in between the Big Toe and the toe beside it while yelling "THAT'S A SPICY PETE BALL!"

ramp job

A sudden, suspicious, and unexplained rise in stock market prices at the end of the trading day. Attributed by observers to market manipulation by large financial institutions.

In particular, a "ramp job" is suspected to be the work of the secretive "PPT" (Plunge Protection Team). Refers to an attempt to sustain artificially high prices in equities despite an overall bear-market trend.

Derisive term suggesting nefarious activity, related to other slang terms such as "whack job" (secretly arranged contract murder) and "hack job" (ineffective temporary solution to a problem).

"Look at that ramp job in the S&P chart at the close on Friday. The PPT is hitting hard, they really do not want this market to fall. Don't believe the hype."

Knee Job

A knee Job is when you wake up at two in the morning and your old lady has jammed her Knee into your C&B's and is rubbin' like she either wants to bust 'em off or make you spurt a load on her leg. Generally best when she's wearing hosiery of some kind.

My wife woke me up with a fantastic Knee Job and I made a mess on her shin.

Boo Job

A blow job recieved from a ghost. It is an unexplained occurence that tends to happen mostly at night. Many paranormal investigators believe it is not an intelligent haunting, but just an "imprint" of what was. Boo jobs happen mostly to boys that are ages 13-17. Many people believe a boo job is a form of "ghost rape". Nobody knows exactly why boo jobs happen to people. Some people think it is at random, and others believe that the person recieving the boo job could have been the ghost's lover in another life.

Timmy awoke to a strange sucking noise. He looked down to see a white mist at his "package". He let out a scream and the white mist vanished. It occured to him that he had just been a victim of a "boo job".
