Patient man's situation? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

job

I believe this is a double definition.

'patient man's' is the first definition.
(biblical character famous for patience)

'situation?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for job that I've seen before include "Assignment" , "Personification of patience" , "Misfortunate man of the Bible" , "Post" , "Patient man; task" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
