When I hear the word jobber I think of pitchmen or sales. The guys who buy from the supplier is a jobber.
In wrestling (and I don't know what 'doing the job' means) a jobber is an insult and is someone who is working without a contract and tend to lose all the time (can't have a jobber lose to a name guy). The term 'jabroni' is a play on the word jobber and calling someone that is like saying they are a nobody. This may be the same thing you are saying. I still go with a jobber being a middleman. |
