Deal with endlessly enthusiastic ticket supplier? (7,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

traffic warden

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'enthusiastic ticket supplier?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'deal with endlessly' is the wordplay.
'deal' becomes 'traffic' (to traffic something is to sell or deal in it).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'endlessly' becomes 'warden' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'traffic'+'warden'='TRAFFIC WARDEN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for traffic warden that I've seen before include "Parking official" , "Assistant to police on road" , "Parking meter attendant" , "Issuer of parking tickets" , "Meter maid, perhaps" .)
