A bit of a job? (9)
I believe the answer is:
piecework
'a bit of a job?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'bit of a job?' is the wordplay.
'bit of' becomes 'piece' (I've seen this before).
'a job?' becomes 'work' (job is a kind of work).
'piece'+'work'='PIECEWORK'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for piecework that I've seen before include "Payment by results" , "doing jigsaw?" , "Method of payment" .)
