The two jobs are executed sequentally. In fact, the second job is not even

by the second job. I noticed that jobs are run in different threads.
Can somebody guess what's going on here? [Let's leave aside the question about why there are
workspace jobs in the first place, and why I cannot get away with a single
setProjectDescription call, etc. -- I just want to understand this specific issue]
What you've described should work fine. If the jobs run sequentially and are fully-ordered, so you're really seeing:
Thread 1: getPD() ... setPD() > ... > Thread 2: getPD ... setPD()
Thread 2 should see all the changes made by Thread1. If, instead, Thread 2 does a get before Thread 1 has done its set, then Thread 2 will have a handle on the PD as it was before Thread 1's set.
