JobIntentService - Should I stop the current work in onStopCurrentWork?

Lets take a very simple JobIntentService as an example:



public class ExampleJobIntentService extends JobIntentService {

@Override
protected void onHandleWork(@NonNull Intent intent) {
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
SystemClock.sleep(1000);
}
}

static void enqueueWork(Context context, Intent work) {
enqueueWork(context, ExampleJobIntentService.class, 123, work);
}
}


When the job gets interrupted (for example because the device falls into doze), the current for-loop keeps running until it is finished. In a real app this would be the actual background work. Will this cause any problems? Should I add a boolean flag in onStopCurrentWork that returns from onHandleWork if the job is stopped?
