Around December 1994, I think, the Wall St. Journal ran a long front page
article written by a reporter who worked in a dirty recycling center
(MURF), and a poultry processing plant, among other jobs. The very good
article reported that the six fastest growing jobs (in the U.S.) in the 90s
were those two and some other low-skill, low-wage, dirty, dangerous,
boring, dead-end jobs.

Sorry I don't recall the other jobs or the exact reference.
