WinZip 'job' feature - does anyone use it?

8,435 Expert 8TB
While I do have a specific question about using 'jobs' in WinZip version 10, first I'd just like to establish this - does anyone actually use this feature of WinZip? It looks as though it could be very handy.

I've been using a trial version of winzip for years, so I try not to spend too much time on it - or they'll know...(suspicious eyes...)

You mean "they" will make you pay? Why not go free with (say) 7zip?

I've alway considered WinZip well worth the fairly small asking price.
