Broken

Typically used in the workplace, something becomes "Broken" when a person wants to avoid doing a job involving a certain piece of machinery by claiming that it isn't functioning properly.

Mr. Stevens : Carlos, I need 5 copies of this on my desk by sundown!

Carlos : Sorry sir the copier is "Broken" right now.

Mr. Stevens : The copier is always "Broken" when I ask you to use it!
