Hi All, As me and my friends, "have a job" means that the job is suitable with every person's character; the salary of it must be match with works which we will do; the bonus of job is must enough to keep us working for company for a long time. How about you? What is mean "have a job" with you?

Oh no, I don't think that meaning of the job is the same with everybody. Some people only need the high salary. They don't need what they'll work.

To earn an additional income so my husband and I can play. He makes good money. So I have something to spend. Actually, we pool our money into one account. We pay our bills and then we play. It's nice to know we have a little extra for things we enjoy doing. Of course, being happy at my job is a must. It is no fun working if you don't enjoy your job. Best Wishes!

There are many things that it could mean. Some people have a job and they get paid for their work. Some other people have a job and that means they have duties and responsibilities but they do not earn any wages for it, like a stay at home mom or nanny.

When I hear "have a job", it is that a person is doing something that perhaps they do not anticipate doing for long term, but will do for now. When I hear "I have a career", it means to me that a person is doing exactly what they set out to do and are really enjoying it.

It is a simple concept for me ."Have a job "means "i can work for a sustainable time and get paid for my work ."Although the depression is gone in my country ,it is still hard for me to find a good job .So i decide to have a further study .On one hand ,i can wait till the job market turns prosperous.On the other hand ,it seems easier for one to find a satisfactory job with a master degree .

To me, "have a job" means having an income in order to survive. If I have no job, I don't think I'll be able to survive as I need to eat and I can't eat if I don't have money.
