What is a good way to say you left your job for a better one?

I had a horrible job...fast food place making 7.50/hr. Then I was offered an office job making $10/hr.

Its a no-brainer. But what is a good way to put that on an application where is says "reason for leaving"

I dont want to give them the idea that I will bail whenever a better opportunity comes along (even though anyone would!)

Tell them that you moved to greener pastures. they are human, they will understand. don't brag, just be factual.

"i got an opportunity to advance my career and learn new things " something along those lines.

You can say you were looking to advance your responsibilities and felt the job was at a dead end. You think this new company offers are more stable work environment.

Job applications are frequently gruelling - how should you fill them in? Should you chase them up when there is no answer? I suggest there's no true solution but the website in the box below has some brilliant instruction about this. It certainly helped me when I was completing job applications recently, also they have extra help on job seeking.
