Working temperature

The temperature at which, whether-you-like-it-or-not, you must go to work tomorrow.

Working temperature varies from subfreezing to high 100°F (over 40°C), but no matter what the working temperature is - you've got to go to work.

Work

I'm going to stop working one way or another and if I have to kill you kids to do it that's just an unfortunate byproduct of your unwillingness to give up control of other people's lives.

Hym "Yeah, no, there is not virtue inherent in work. I work while people above me reap a disproportionate benefit. My engine is shot. The water pump is shot and there is a gasket issue. It's only a matter of time before I don't have any form of transportation. Which is why it's good that people are shooting up schools. There's your leftist reminder that you siphoning other lives comes at a price. I'm not going to do what you want. But only because I DON'T NEED TO. If you try to make me do a thing I do not need to do... The thing I WILL DO... That I DON'T NEED TO DO... Will INSTEAD be murdering a child. I can do it today if you'd like. But you're wasting my time at this point. I hate having my time wasted, Jordan."
