'My' Job?

I was raised to blur the difference
between an apt humility and accepting
condescension. I am often unsure
about the values of the system I follow.
But something remains clear throughout
-all talk of 'my job' or of jobs being the property
of any nationality, region, country, or ethnicity seems silly.

Some self employed can talk about 'my job'
-they set out their contract with themselves
to do what they do, for the money they do it for
-often as part of a well networked service industry.

Also all the jobs done by workers
within a co-equal co-operative structure
are the property of those that do them. 

But otherwise jobs, and even more 'careers',
are the intellectual property of employers
who contract out remunerative roles
to would-be employees where the role
is the tasks set out within a physical space
-all of which the employer owns outright.

The contract is always more on the employers terms
than those of any employee, though some employers
may grease the wheels of industry by making it
that some employees find esteem in how they work.

Equally many more employers disown their role
of being employer through employment agencies
and encourage 'the employee' to self shrinking
pride and hubris in their ownership of the job,
thus allowing employers, generally,
a greater reward for their detachment.
