Spec work (short for speculative) is any job for which the client expects to see examples or a finished product before agreeing to pay a fee.
The client wasn't satisfied with the job so the designer didn't get his fee, because he agreed to do spec work.

Typically used when talking about a new car because you, the owner, cheaped out on the options list! Example? The 3-series BMW with the smallest engine, 15 inch plain tires, bottom-end awful sound system with no auxiliary input, no navigation, zero-additional-options is a "poverty-spec" BMW.
Can be used to refer to almost any car...
...Note this does not apply to ultra high end cars that are AWESOME regardless of options. What kind of car does not exist in poverty-spec? Eg. Porsche 911 Turbo. Opinions may vary.

Dude, why'd your dad get that brand-new poverty-spec Corolla? For that $10,000 he could've gotten a nice fully-equipped Lexus on the used market!

Please do not wear Tyrannosaurus specs anymore. I would provide an example, but that would involve further knowledge of these glasses. I'm going to just Fahrenheit 451 this shit and YOU, just forget you ever read this definition and JUST stay away from over sized bifocals.
