office job
Cubicle-based career
A job performed primarily at a desk in an office setting, typically involving administrative, clerical, or professional work rather than manual labor or fieldwork.
Office jobs usually follow regular business hours and involve computers, paperwork, and meetings: She left restaurant work for a nine-to-five office job.
The term sometimes carries connotations of stability and monotony.
