(Noun) Sometimes used in an ironic sense to define an abstract feeling of annoyance towards not just homework but the odd grammatical rules of other languages specifically, Spanish.
After sitting through that agonizing Spanish class session, I grudgingly started on the assigned Work de home.

A woman who is capable of taking on children, home, husband and a job.
She is a strong, confident woman who can handle anything that comes her way. She understands that living in today's world is difficult without two incomes, but also knows that her children are the #1 priority and they need her to be available 24/7. She is resourceful, doing everything she can to make ends meet while entertaining the child(ren), cleaning the house, paying the bills, attending school plays, volunteering for fundraisers, going on field trips, overseeing homework, cooking dinner all while holding on desperately to her social life and making her husband happy.

Government service jargon and employee shorthand for defrauding taxpayers. Used as a noun, and certainly never as a verb, it describes a state-of-being generally accompanied by euphoria and giddiness from stealing from the “man.” Except, in this case, it is not the “man”, it is the people. The state-of-being derives from sweet contracting side gigs while sitting at home on the government dime, saving both on childcare and gasoline for your new sweet SUV that you only have drive to “work” two days a week.
Although the state-of-being is generally continuous, it is sometimes interrupted by home chores, trips to Sam’s Club, meetings with side gig clients, and lines at Starbucks. The state-of-being is highly contagious among peers, and newcomers are taught to be giant assholes by the veterans until the impotent management says “fuck it, I’d rather these turds stay at home in bliss than interrupt my web surfing, and if I am the only one at work, it makes me look important.”
