I was genuinely surprised you let me use the Painting Skill earlier, but didn't say anything because I know when to keep my mouth shut.

I agree entirely with this interpretation. Jobs are supposed to represent the broader set of skills and experience picked up doing them, while Skills are finely tailored to more individual tasks.
