 * Job Class
 * 
 * The purpose of this class is to simulate a running "Job" in memory. To create a new Job, call the
 * "start" method, and inform the job of how long it should run, and give it an identifier.
 * The job will use this to report back that it is done. If you need to pause the job, you
 * can do so. Finally, the job will report back to whoever called it that it needs to be destroyed.
 * If there are any questions, email bspeice@uncc.edu
