A job is something you can take or leave but a career is something you better hope to God you really love to do. Good luck future college grads!

>> No.12092032

For npcs I’m guessing a career gives some sense of purpose/pride/identity. A job is like some shit college kids do during the summer.

It’s all the same shit for anyone capable of independent thought though, a career is just better pay in exchange for more stress and responsibility

A job is something you do for a wage.
A career is something you do to advance in life.

A job is where you work to earn money, a career is where you work to earn money but enjoy it, ie accepted your place as a wageslave

A job affords you shelter, an abundance of food, warmth, health, and information
If it doesn't allow for that it isn't a job, it's wage slavery


a "career" is what affords the interest on your mcmansion's jumbo mortgage, car payments on the minivan and F350, credit card payments for your cunt of a wife, student loan payments for the both of you, your dipshit kids' private schooling and health insurance, the dozen premium subscription services you have, the domestic and international trips to places you gain nothing from going to, and a steady line of useless electronic garbage
you avoid that shit and you don't need a career

I say this all as an engineer making $86k
this is a job, I'm there for the paycheck and if I don't like it I'll leave
I don't give a fuck about my """career development"""

A job is a specific position with well-defined responsibilities and compensation. A job is characterized by a position description in the context of a corporation or other organization. One or more people can perform a given job.

A career is based on a coherent set of skills and competencies. A career is characterized by a resume or CV in the context of a field or subject matter. Your career will have one or more jobs.

The level of cope you invest into making it 'work.'
