I don't think job creep is a non notable slang. I wrote this article after reading an article at nytimes.com about overworked Americans. I would argue that job creep is a phenomenon not a slang and since it has been used in a widely read medium such as the New York Times it is notable.

Here is the section about job creep (p.2):

“Aggravating the time squeeze is a phenomenon known as job creep in which our jobs have spilled increasingly into our leisure time. Americans are finishing work memos on their home computers at eleven p.m., they are reading office e-mails on Saturdays and Sundays, and they are using their cell phones and BlackBerries to answer their bosses’ queries while on vacation.”

Here is a link to the article:
