The state of being turned off by working or being employed.
People with work aversion (or aversion to work) generally try to get by on as little effort as possible or avoid work altogether, or if employed, put a minimal effort into the work.
Those with work aversion in need of money often turn to drastic measures to try to get money, such as looking for effortless income or easy money, exhausting their savings and credit, getting into debt, begging, or even worse, unethical or illegal activity.
People with work aversion are not necessarily lazy and do not always lack a work ethic in their heart, but simply have a psychological difficulty in working.

The modern era, in which people in a variety of settings are given extra scrutiny to determine if they are truthful about their identity and their rights which they assert, the world has increased amounts of monitoring, and big brother has an overall more watchful eye.

Unofficially, the Security Age began on September 11, 2001.
Everyone is considered suspicious until proven not a terrorist in the Security Age.
Many things that were easy before the Security Age began are now a hassle.
During the Security Age, only ticketed passengers are allowed passed security checkpoints at the airport.
You go to a dry cleaner during the Security Age wanting to retrieve your clothes you dropped off, and the attendant says "ID please."

Faking the appearance of a disability by walking with or carrying a cane when not needed.
Common and easy to pull off because canes are cheap, and can cost under $10.
Usually done for the following reasons:
-To gain sympathy from onlookers
-To get a physician to declare one disabled
-To obtain a handicapped parking permit
-To be given priority in line or obtain priority seating reserved for the disabled (such as on a bus or train)
-To use electric shopping carts reserved for the disabled when in reality too lazy to walk
-To fraudulently obtain various disability benefits such as discounts or government handouts

I think my neighbor may be committing cane fraud. She sometimes walks with a cane and appears to struggle, and sometimes runs out to her car with no cane as if she is in a hurry to get somewhere.

The act of humiliating another person by criticizing them about their poor or supposedly poor manners in front of other people.
Sometimes, it is done to a person who really has poor manners. Other times, it is done by one person to another who does not necessarily have any problematic manners simply for the sake of causing the victim pain or anguish, or to take out anger or get revenge on the victim.
