-bash: fg: no job control

This morning, when I SSHed into another one of my systems, this message popped up right under the "Last login" line. Does anyone know what it means?

I am used to "job control" referring to JCL on a mainframe, so this one is new to me. ;)

Thanks!

Looks like something requiring job control was started in a
non-interactive shell.
Job control is usually when you use & at the end of a command to put it
in background or use ^Z to suspend the process then bg to put it in the background. The fg command will attempt to bring it to the foreground
again.

Thanks. I didn't think it was a big deal. I don't know what process it'd
be, though, as I have not used & for a while.
