Worked his sanity off

A person (usually a male) who works to gain acceptance and approval of someone else (Family members, teacher, boss, idol, etc.) until he is not mentally sane. This can start at a very young age.

work latency

The time in between arriving at the office and doing actual work
Guan has been showing excessive work latency as of late. He comes in at 9:00 and goes to breakfast with his posse until 10:00 am.

Government Work

A Lowest Bidder's or Military Grade standard of consistent and adequate, but otherwise unimpressive work, without the quality of a competitive market. A done job. Not well done, but done.

This can also apply to imprecise but likewise adequate usage of deadly force with too much time and budget constraints to perfectly avoid all collateral damage and casualties.
Person 1: The rifle can just barely hit a watermelon at 500 yards's distance.

Person 2: It's not a sniper rifle. That sort of accuracy is more than accurate enough for government work.

Working joe

What snapchats moderation is operated by as it bans people for the silliest of things or just for no reason at all and makes appealing for an unban unnecessarily difficult and sometimes impossible.
Since working joes are known to be difficult to deal with, it’s no doubt that snapchats moderation is operated by them. Any time you encounter a working joe in alien isolation you know it’s just gonna be rude or just coldly kill you and be of absolutely no help at all.
