Great question! "Job" is countable (e.g., "I have two jobs"). "Work" is usually uncountable, referring to the activity itself (e.g., "I have a lot of work to do"). We don't say "I have a work." 💼

Yes, you can, but it sounds very informal. In a professional setting, we might say "My client is dissatisfied" or "The client requested some changes." It sounds more polite! 🎨

It could be a project if you are just setting it up! But if it is ongoing, you can say "I manage an e-commerce business" or "I run a T-shirt brand." It shows that you are an entrepreneur! 🚀
