What This Job Pays: warehouse laborer

Demand: Job openings should be numerous because the occupation is very large and turnover is relatively high — characteristic of occupations requiring little prior or formal training, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Many openings will arise from the need to replace workers who transfer to other occupations or those who retire or leave the labor force for other reasons.
