A word between Job & House.
How do I have a sense between a job and a job? Are there people who don’t need to work, but for whatever reason choose to be employed? What are the criteria for determining success of
- an Undemanding boss/manager? Who
- have these
- types of jobs generally have wealth from
- some other source (near retirement, rich parents,

- spouse, etc.)
but we must be careful in choosing them. My company has been the big game changing bank. Their job’s characteristics include several of these characteristics: Excellent flexibility working hours Little stress Low credit Very well paid, rarely stresssome little cash out of pocket. What are some of the important factors influencing my decision to quit to work with a company? So they’ve got reasons for working that are non-financiical. Whichever you call your gig, it’d be inaccurate to call it a “hobby”, because it’s not enjoyable enough, and it generates a non-trivial (albeit modest) amount of income. Yet because of its very undemanding and flexible nature, I think it’s unfair to say it is a full-fledged job. I can work in this kind of job, but it’s really frustrating when people start comparing them with real jobs that people have to work because they need an income. If it’s like an 18th century “gentleman farmer” comparing himself to a “normal” farmer, besides comparing himself to a “gentleman” farmer.
Yesterday, I heard a mother who works part time in her dad’s prosperous business compare her job to a single parent working 50+ hours everyday in a diner and as a maid. How can

What is the enDEAVOR? What sort of subject should be considered as “enewed” is your passions? Do some who have an endeavor as you are describing actually do WORK really hard to their success, and many depend on such an endeavor(s) as their sole source of income? How can I help someone if they need any help?
How can you define what it means for you to have fun?

Tongue in cheek, but the word you’re seeking may be the following neologism:
jobby : an endeavor between a job and a hobby
This is how new words come into being, right? It also lines up with one’s more frequent usage of “jobs”.
Where do you find the answer to your question in mind? All jobs are not created equal by any means. A job is a job. It is the regular remunerative position .
Efficient to define jobs: jobbie (or jobby ) means a job, ordinarily a task rather than a form of employment for which
one is paid (in India, general). So, jobby is not a job as defined by M+W (see below), but at the same time
bears no obvious relationship to hobby.
A “labor of love” is work done for its own pleasure rather than chiefly for financial reward, which seems squarely on point.

of Love” is most apt for work that has intrinsic, non-monetary value (or is expected to)–acting at a Renaissance Fair, cleaning a park, doing genealogy, tutoring children, or writing a book, say. What works for someone that does not just a job at a zoo to meet attractive women, job at a Walmart greeter to combat loneliness and depression?
Is sinecure the closest I can get?
A position requiring little or no work but giving the holder status or financial benefit:
political sinecures for the supporters of ministers

This meaning evolved from an older sense, now archaic, where the word meant “a distraction”, but more particularly a calling away from your vocation ( n.1):
