What's the difference between a job and a career?

Because somewhere along the line it became you can do anything you want and progression is a sign of success, aka career, work up the ladder and you have success, or get a uni degree and start higher up.

It's a load of rubbish, always has been 

So few end up in jobs they thought they might want to do, I'm still learning about jobs at 51 I never knew existed 

It's not so easy to just flip between jobs, industries as it used to be, even minimum wage jobs all day need some kind of qualification or experience
