A work kermit is British slang for a work permit. A worker must have their work kermit with them before they can enter an overseas worksite. It’s often depicted as a pocket sized green frog that is hand carried to the work site and allows entry.
Manager, “Ali can you go down to Mozambique next week to complete the job?”. Ali, “I’m afraid not boss, I haven’t got my work kermit”.

Get the working my tits mug.“Government work” is what one does for oneself in a shop on company time using company tools, machinery and materials. “Government work” “hides” the fact that you are stealing company resources by implying that it’s a secret, off the books, project. But since everyone knows what “government work” means you really aren’t hiding anything, you’re sharing an inside joke.
When someone says “that’s good enough for government work,” they are admitting that they are doing less than perfect work because it’s just for their personal use.

There will be no 'working with' you are stealing from me so a retard can call himself what I am.

Get the STIP Work mug.Hey this is James Thompson, inventor of all things ever made in the universe, universe included. I can get you some working cap, that's what I call it in 'the biz' you know? HAHA! No, but seriously not only can I get you working cap, but I'll also sell you my pet chupacabra for a pack of cigarettes. I may have no life, money, credibility or truth to anything I say, but I can get you some working cap for about 35% interest. I used to own Dubai also, then sold it after I found some less than stellar info on an audit I was doing for the Israeli government, but whatever. So what do you say about that working cap?!
