Jobs are only dead end if you're a dead end worker.
Even retail and food service leads to management opportunities. I'm a bartender stashing tip money away and even that's enough for thousands of disposable dollars of income I could spend on pleasure and leisure or to start my own business ventures or investment portfolio with.
Ultimately I'd just like to work for myself in food service, and run a small burger shack on a beach or other touristy spot somewhere. Or start a successful production studio and start making art and music or whatever but that's way more of an unrealistic pipe dream because of how that particular industry is doing these days.
