You're correct: bash is the right tool for the job.
Heresy! zsh is *always* the right tool for the job. As a corollary, if zsh is
not the right tool for the job, then it is not, in fact, a job.
Linux (and Unix, for that matter) does not have the concept of the "job"
Business-oriented operating systems (like OpenVMS, MVS/OS, OS/400
and other legacy systems) do, but any operating system without a
batch queue (which is, naturally, to where you submit jobs) can not
have "jobs".
(No, cron does *not* count. It's a piss-poor imitation.)
