John really got Work Raped hard by Tim, and the worst part is Jerry got caught in the cross-fire while he was just trying to work. It was an unfortunate example of Third Party Work Rape.

It’s when someone/something lives in your head rent free and makes you overly question them or the thing very deeply.
It really affects you more so in the emotional aspect but can and usually also affects your physical self in some degree.
It’s more times than not one sided it’s usually just you dealing with the situation in this way and not the other person but that’s not always the case.
When someone does this to another person it sometimes happens because that person has the upper hand and is taking advantage/manipulating the scenario.

Guy: This girl is playing hard to get and she doesn’t seem to care about what I’m doing or isn’t very invested in what we have, she’s so nonchalant. So that makes me super interested in her because she’s not giving me the attention that I want. Like I want her to show me that she gives a fuck about me. And her doing this just makes me want her more. I’m thinking about every move she makes. And how I can get her to show me an ounce of jealousy or have her prove in some way that she feels something towards me.

“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.
