Sirve para referirse a alguien "vago", una persona que no trabaja, pero que tampoco tiene la disposición de hacerlo.
También se suele emplear para referirse a algo o a alguien sin aspiraciones y/o claridad en el futuro; como traducción, lo más parecido que se me ocurre en inglés es: Down-and-outer.
e.g.
- Ese es un [sujeto/tipo] sin oficio ni beneficio
This guy is down-and-outer
