vocabulary简明 Whether you enjoy it or not, few can survive without a job, or performing work for pay. There are also non-paying jobs, also called "chores" or "tasks," that are necessary but do not put food in your mouth.
vocabulary扩展 Job and work are often synonymous and unfortunately often have a negative connotation meaning “toil." Other meanings of job that are negative involve damaging events or crimes. When you wrecked your car, someone might have said, "You did a real job on that;" or, when you convinced your sister to hand over her allowance, you might have referred to it as a "con job."
