/^t/Blessing is always regarded as something very positive. It is something that brings happiness into our lives. Very often it is understood as God's favour and protection which means it is something holy we have to care about and make use of, otherwise we will get punished. This is just the way we view work very often. We treat it like a valuable gift from a merciful God who enabled us to use our skills and abilities, who provided us with the good source of getting money in order to support ourselves or / and our families. The unemployed being on the dole will certainly consider any sort of work as a miracle they have been looking for ward to. A businessman who has started to build up his career will not reject any proposal, no matter how much hard work and effort it would require from him, to buy a better car, a larger house and so on and so forth. In other words he would regard this opportunity as even a double blessing.
