If it wasn’t for my work wife, I would quit working in this hell hole.

Work CC'd

When an employee that does not get along with another employee, deliberately copies all email correspondence to a boss just to get the employee in trouble; a form of work tattle-tailing.

Shit! Teresa just Work CC'd our boss on the blown development deal.

Son: Dad i really want to own my own business one day and grow up to be a chulo just like you.

Dad: First off you can never be a true chulo, but if you go to college, study hard and put in work, one day you might own your own business.

College Works

A scam, a pyramid scheme, a lie. Through an intricate brainwashing process, the company tricks college students into providing them with free promotion and labor, and providing innocent homeowners with god awful paint jobs. Even worse, College Works has an entire corporate branch made just to go online and promote the program by posing as satisfied college students. They compose false testimonials and make fake accounts for online forums to argue with complainers and people who call them out. There are considerable chunks of their website devoted to refuting claims that their program is a scam.
Please Google search "College Works" and form your own opinion.

I got an internship with College Works Panting! There were so many rigorous interviews and training sessions, but they said they want to hire me as a manager!

Get The Works

Get The Works was a popular catchphrase from the nineties when people wanted to get all the toppings on whatever they ordered in a take away joint. Pizza Hut especially loved using the catchphrase to advertise their pizzas however when ordering in the modern age the younger generation don't understand the saying . Considering how commonly used the saying was when ordering takeaway in America or the western world and the amount of money Pizza hut spent into promoting it I'm surprised I'm the only one to write a definition for it maybe I'm showing my age.

Server. What do you want on your pizza
Me. I'LL GET THE WORKS
Server. Really all the toppings are you sure? thats alot of food
Me. Thats how we did it in my day.

working families

(Chiefly used in the plural form.) A high-maintenance demographic identified by politicians (such as Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd) as requiring especial economic and moral support of their chosen lifestyle, as well as requiring constant and frequently gratuitous mention in political rhetoric -- in particular, during electioneering and in Budget speeches. In political demography, "working families" may be considered the human counterpart of the sacred cow.

Antonyms to "working families" are difficult to specify as politicians refuse to confirm any type of eligible voter as definitely excluded by the term. However, examination of the context in which "working families" is used suggests that it essentially refers to households in which dependent children reside. Thus, antonyms would include (among others) "single people", "couples without children", and "empty-nesters".

We must abolish WorkChoices (draconian industrial relations legislation) because it's unfair to working families.
