We can have more than one job:
If you have kids, that's a job. If you have pets, that's a job. If you maintain a social circle, that's a job. If you have a job, that's also a job. I'd argue it's your job to restrain from stabbing random strangers in the street.
Maybe "responsibility" is a better term, or maybe that's too strong too. You're not going to be paid for many of these things or penalized if you don't, but living a life outside of any expectations towards other people does not a healthy society create.

Sure, I agree with you, we all have a responsibility to restrain ourselves from stabbing random people in the street. Do we all have a responsibility to make the world "safe" for the most vulnerable people amongst us? No. It's great that we have some people working on that, like mental health professionals, or city councilmembers, but every single person does not and should not work on that particular thing.
