@DamkerngT.
Doctor is hard job.
Is it correct sentence?
Its correct form is.
Doctor is a hard job,right?
11:36
No, you should say "Being a doctor is a hard job". @Idon'tknowwhoIam.
Or you could say "It's a hard job to be a doctor". @Idon'tknowwhoIam.

@Idon'tknowwhoIam. What Kinzle B said.

@DamkerngT.
He is about to open the door.
Here "about"is an adj,right
Hmm... I'm not sure what it is.
It should be an adverb.
Please tell me.
How can you say that it is an adj.
No, I don't think it's an adjective.
Look up it in Cambridge dictionary.
Look it up (We don't say "look up it", for some unknown reason!)

This is a question which created a problem on Facebook.
It is an adj.
One of the boys said, it is adverb.
But I said, it is adj.
(In any case, knowing what part of speech it is is probably not the most important thing for learners. You should know how words are related to each other rather than their labels.)
He is about to open the door.
"About"is adj, followed by infinitive to.
@Idon'tknowwhoIam. Why do you think it's an adjective?
@Idon'tknowwhoIam. But there is no such rule saying that a word before a to-infinitive is an adjective.

Can I ask this question on main site?
I am happy to see you.
Look "happy"is adj.
To is used
@DamkerngT.
@Idon'tknowwhoIam. Sure! Why not?! :D
So now
What do you think of?

@Idon'tknowwhoIam. That's my personal opinion. But if you want to be sure what's the best part of speech we should assign to this about, I think you may want to hear opinions from others.
BTW, I brought this up in another room. Feel free to join the discussion. ;-)

Happy and about do seem similar. But we can also find differences:
