Rick finished his job/work at quarter past eight.
Hello.
Let's have a look at the following sentences and my interpretations:
1) Rick finished his job at quarter past eight.
- He resigned or was fired and the time of quarter past eight was when his employment ended.
- He just finished some particular task.
2) Rick finished his work at quarter past eight.
- He just left work, which means he either left the building where he worked or stopped working in some other way.
Can it pertain to one particular day and/or mean that he used to finish his work at that time?
Are my interpretations correct?
