Nut jobs

Here is a good one for you. Nut jobs. I saw this in an article about the date today (03/03/03), and it refers to people who are insane. OK, I understand it when people are nuts. But then are they jobs? Since when are people jobs? If that was the case, then we could have one applicant for a job fill another applicant for a job; i.e., have that other applicant for his job, provided that second applicant is indeed a job, for example, a nut job. But anyone who would think of a person as a job in the first place is himself a nut job. Colorful terminology, but weird.
