"A pig of a something" -> nghĩa là công việc hoặc điều gì rất khó khăn, phiền phức.

Ví dụ
Poor weather conditions, the cold winter snap yet to arrive, all add up to what is turning out to be a pig of a project.

The 78-year-old said he hadn’t missed Spitting Image, as ‘it’s a pig of a show to do, but I think the current situation warrants (đảm bảo) the effort.

There's still a very heavy presence at the scene at the moment, a fire like this can be a pig of a thing to put out, but everything is under control and some crews (đội) have returned back to their local fire stations.
