Checkbox info wont include in Mailto

Hey, im new to php.
Basically I have made a form to request which type of job(s) are needed, which when filled will then be sent to an email address.

The problem im having is that when more than 1 checkbox is ticked, the mailto only sends 1 of the checkedboxes.

My script for the checkboxes are:::::::
<span class="label"><span class="labelred">*</span>Job type:</span>
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="job" value="paper" id="job_0" />
Paper Hanging</label>
<br />
<div style="margin-left:270px";><label>
<input type="checkbox" name="job" value="painting" id="job_1" />
Painting</label>
<br />
<label>
<input type="checkbox" name="job" value="insurance" id="job_2" />
Insurance Work</label>
</div>

--------------------------------------------------------------
My mailto script for this section is basically:
$_job = $_REQUEST['job']..

How do i request an individual job ID? or make the name of the checkboxes 'job' to include all th checked items in to the main body of the email?
Just so you know, in the body of the email, i simply have the $job variable added into it.

Any help would be greatful, it cant be that hard, but i have no idea!

Cheers!!
