First statement issued by SQL Server Agent sets quoted_identifier off

Question

As I can see in SQL Server Profiler, the first statement issued by SQL Server Agent when it begins to execute a job step, is

select c.name, c.description 
from master.dbo.syscharsets c 
where c.id = convert(tinyint, databasepropertyex ( db_name() , 'sqlcharset'))  

set quoted_identifier off

In my job steps I always need quoted_identifier to be set to on.

How can I change this behavior?

Default connection setting for the server is set to On.

select @@version

Output:

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP3) - 10.0.5500.0 (Intel X86)

可能的解决方法是在作业开始时添加“ SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON”。
