I first heard "It Just Works" used regularly within Apple by Peter Hoddie and Ian Ritchie of the QuickTime team in January 1993. Later, Steve Jobs and others started using it, probably because Peter and his team had presented QuickTime and used that phrase.

Working on something that isn't the main thing you should be working on, but in general is good to get done and is helpful.

When you call in sick, but you are not really sick. You are just sick of work!!! It's when you need a day off (badly) to recover, and get yourself ready for the daily grind (again).
Hello Boss? I'm sick. Do I have the Flu bug? No..... I've got the work bug. I've got it really bad- full on hives and sh*t. I'll be back tomorrow.
