Common expressions include 'do a good job' (perform well), 'on the job' (while working), 'job hunting' (searching for employment), and the British informal 'it's a good job' (it's fortunate that). 'Job' differs from 'work' in being countable.

「job」指有偿工作或就业，或要完成的特定任务。常见表达包括「do a good job」（做得好）、「on the job」（在工作中）、「job hunting」（找工作）和英式非正式用语「it's a good job」（幸亏）。「job」与「work」的不同之处在于它是可数的。
