"I really appreciate your help getting me this job."
I saw the sentence in a movie and I was wondering if help is equal to getting me this job.
Thank you so much as always and have a good day.
c.f The organization offers practical help (in) dealing with paperwork. In the sentence, I know help cannot be equal to dealing with paperwork, considering meaning.Last edited by sky3120; 06-Nov-2012 at 06:33.

I don't understand your question. There is no 'equality' here. You helped me get the job, and I am thanking you.
