workplace mobbing

When co-workers collectively gang up on another co-worker. Includes things like gossip, criticism, false reporting to management, shunning, gratuitous lack of co-operation, generally nasty behaviour. Places huge stress on the target, resulting in illness or quitting.

Workplace Mobbing is common in hierarchical work environments. One person is targeted, the rest are complicit. Throwback to teenage girl type behaviour.

Council Workers 

Usually a person who is employed by a local council in the western suburbs who is your stereotypical bogan but ethnics also are employed, They are sent to do repairs around the city but do nothing than eat or sleep whilst on the job. They are usually sent in packs of up to 15 men to get a job done but only 2 out the 15 men do the job while the rest slack off.

'10 council workers sent to fix a small pothole in the road whilst only 2 of the workers do the duty whilst the rest go down to the local pub.'

Halo Workout

At the end of a Halo game, everyone playing takes the number of deaths they had during the last round, does that many push-ups and then proceeds to do double that number of sit-ups. The goal is to equal out days of Halo play with a little excercise.

Alright, I had seven deaths. I'll do the Halo Workout and be back in seven push-ups and fourteen sit-ups.

drug worker 

SImilar to a sex worker, a drug worker is anyone who works in any capacity in the drug trade, legal or illegal. A pharmacy cashier is a drug worker. A medical marijuana dispensary cashier is a drug worker. Someone who sells heroin needles is a drug worker. A go-between who gets drugs from dealer to customer is a drug worker. A look-out who watches for cops is a drug worker. A person who tests ecstasy at raves is a drug worker.

If we legalized weed, drug workers could pay taxes into the Social SEcurity system and keep it solvent.
