0It seems to me that it should logically be "jobs", regardless of whether each person has one job or several. There are still many jobs for many people. The only way it could logically be "job" is if all these "most people" shared the 01i00same02i00 job. Compare "they left their house" (one house) with "they left their houses" (many houses).02br
