Try to remove setHasOptionMenu(true) from your onCreate() method, and change the onCreateOptionsMenu in this way:

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.job_status_option_menu, menu);
    return true;
}

You should place this method call inside the oncreateview of fragment if you use fragments inside activity. Or else you don't have to use this invocation inside activity.
