Job

A job is not meant to be long-term. People have jobs to pay the bills. Most people don’t plan to keep a job for their entire lives. A job is temporary, something to make ends meet. People aren’t usually passionate about their jobs.

A job is an opportunity to make money. Money is used in society as a unit of exchange, which has market-determined value.

A job is an activity in which a person undertakes in order to make money.  A job can be unpaid and it can also be voluntary, such as when people do charitable work or work for community organizations. A job can also be paid, such as when working for a company, but this type of work has been known to lead to employees feeling alienated from their tasks and having low self-esteem.

A job is when an individual or company provides work for another in exchange for money.

A job is a position of employment where one works on commission, salary, or other type of pay. A “job” can be either part-time or full-time. The term “job” is also used to refer to the activity performed on that position. The word derives from the Middle Dutch word “jof”, meaning “to help”.
