Here's a quickie - prompted by the consumption of this very nice beer in the UK (if you can find it, try it!)
The phrase 'proper job' comes from the West Country (the SW region of England). It means 'very good' or 'job well done'. And it's not used like this more nationally.
Examples:
You "I got an A in my exam!". Local: "Proper job!"
Local finishes a pint of good lager, smacks their lips and says "Proper job!".
Bye.
