lifetime job

lifetime job
A job in which one remains for ones whole career until ones retirement.

So, while choice of military service as a lifetime-job preference should be indicative of an orientation to military life, the reverse is not true: many people may be predisposed to service life without expressing it as a job preference.

Syn: job for life
