The fourth option is working for a startup. How is that not getting a job?

Edit: to be clear: having done both I do agree it's a very different thing from working a boring job for a large company and I'm definitely hoping to keep working for startups for a while myself.



It technically is a job :) But people who usually work at a startup believe in the mission and don't feel like it's a 9-5 job. Otherwise, you wouldn't go work there for peanuts.
