Unnecessary busy work imposed by employers to make sure they get their money’s worth out of employees or unnecessary working conditions imposed to micromanage employees.
I can perform my job better from (insert any location that makes sense), but am being told to go do it (insert other location that does not make sense) to keep tabs on me. This is some serious spite work.
You perform all of your duties, but are being asked to do some extra spite work that makes no sense and is usually mandated by someone else who is not an expert in your field.
Bad professional development/meetings that could have been emails just for the sake of having professional development/meetings are spite work.
When you are done with your work and more spite work is piled on because it would be a shame if you had nothing to do and were still being paid

‘You did a lot of Shawn work by reorganizing that.’
‘I guess I’ll do all this Shawn work, apparently no one else is going to.’

Get the Shawn work mug.A Work Death occurs when a co-worker leaves your team for another company. In reality they're still alive, but the truth is you'll never see that person ever again after they leave. It's as if they've died and gone on to the next (corporate) life.
"Did you hear that Kami is leaving us for a job at MegaCorp?!"
"Dang, I bet we never see her again"
"Oh well, be sure to wish her a Happy Work Death :)"

Get the Work Death mug.When a man has just pulled up to a urinal in a public restroom and has a gas bubble drop to the back gate at the same time as the flow is about to start. At this moment, a friend walks in and calls you out by name. Now your identity is revealed to others that are in the stalls. With this happening, you can no longer let the brown cloud come flapping out. The only thing you can do is limit the flow with enough squeeze on the urethra that didn’ doesn’t compromise the rectum seal.
Fuck man, my boss walked in to bathroom right when I pulled up to the urinal. A gas bubble dropped and I was working the valves to save myself from an embarrassing fart.
