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.

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.
