right to work

an Orwellian term corporate owned politicians use to describe laws intended to weaken unions and drive down wages

The company demanded the workers take a huge pay cut, but since the factory was in a state with a right to work law the union lacked the clout to stand up for the workers and were forced to accept the companies demands.

Do Work

Coined by Rob Dyrdek and his personal body guard Christopher "Big Black" Boykins, "Do Work" works as a self motivator, to motivating your friends. It ranges from, but is not limited to "taking a dump" and "Nailing" a skateboarding trick. The possibilities for this phrase are endless, you just have to know how to use it.

Also, D.W, short for "Do Work" can be used as well.

Person 1: I'm going to backflip off of this 20 foot ledge.
Person 2: DO WORK!

Example 2:
Person 1: Oh shit son, did you see that backflip off that 20 foot ledge?!
Person 2: DO WORK BABY!, D. W. DO WORK.
