The method of deleting a job in Oracle involves using the DROP_JOB procedure in the DBMS_SCHEDULER package. Below is the syntax for deleting a job.

BEGIN
  DBMS_SCHEDULER.DROP_JOB (
    job_name       IN VARCHAR2,
    force         IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE);
END;

Explanation of Parameters:

  1. Name of the job to be deleted.
  2. force: Optional parameter indicating whether to force the deletion of the job. By default, it is set to FALSE, which means that the job cannot be deleted if it is running. Setting it to TRUE allows for the forced deletion of a running job.

Original: 我正在考虑要不要接受这份工作。
Paraphrased: I am contemplating whether to accept this job offer.

BEGIN
  DBMS_SCHEDULER.DROP_JOB('my_job');
END;

The code above will delete a job named my_job.
