Nice write up. There seem to be some reasoning therein. Career and job have their differences as clearly articulated by the writer. The apparent reality in Nigeria is the difficulty in getting a career or a job. The reason is certainly not far-fetched. As a result of this difficulty, one is only motivated to get a job even when the passion is not guaranteed. If lucky in this quest, you may land one that can be considered a career.

If on the other hand you get a job you have not conceived to do but with the difficulty in getting a dream job, pay package can make you take the job seriously. Before long, you will see yourself developing a passion for it and seeing, with an eagle's eye, where you will want to be in the future.

In my reckoning, the pay package can be a motivation to stimulate passion and thus, a career. Bottom line, there is a nexus between a job and a career and it is the pay package.
