healthy worker effect

This effect suggests that individuals who remain employed tend to be healthier than those who retire or leave the workforce due to health reasons. Essentially, individuals who are healthier and have fewer health issues are more likely to be able to continue working past the retirement age, while those with poorer health or underlying conditions may be more inclined or forced to retire at the statutory age.

Studies show the healthy worker effect is real; people who stay employed often stay healthier, while those who retire early due to health issues tend to be in worse shape.

Sinusoidal Worker

A person who fluctuates between doing large amounts for one item of work and small amounts of work for a different type of work in quick periods of time. For example, not turning in two homeworks for a class, while simultaneously shoveling snow off a 1/4 mile track that same day so they can run

"Bro your being such a sinusoidal worker today"
"Fuck you I only ran 40 miles, and skipped 6 classes its not that bad"

trying to work it out

expression used by couples that are breaking up but won't admit it. Often just delaying the inevitable.

Tiger Woods & his wife were "trying to work it out" after she caught him cheating. But she took his ass to the cleaners anyhow
