What differences do you see on the way people in your life who have jobs discuss their employment, versus those with careers?

Job vs. Careers

  1. View the following clip from Comedian Chris Rock, where he discusses the difference between a job and career–Chris Rock: Job vs. Career.
  2. Reflect on your life and think about people in life (yourself, parents, close family and/or friends) you know who have jobs and those who have careers
  3. Create a title for a brief blog entry and share the following: Your thoughts about the difference between a job and a career. Think about the following questions:
    • What did you previously think a job was?
    • What did you think a career was?
    • What differences do you see on the way people in your life who have jobs discuss their employment, versus those with careers?
    • Did Chris Rock discussion agree with how you thought about both or did Chris Rock make you re-think about what a job is and career is?
    • How do you now think about these two terms?
