I'm just a tool working for the man 

When you are a mindless follower of orders given by your boss/supervisor. Just a follower of your boss/superviser and do not think for yourself.

My boss gave me instructions and followed them "I'm just a tool working for the man."

sleep working 

working while still sleeping, somehow you manage to get the job done without being fully awake. Related to sleep walking and sleep talking, only you get paid. Not to be confused with other occupations involving getting paid for being in bed.

The tech support guys on the night shift were very adept at sleep working, the customers calling in never knew they were talking and typing with their eyes closed.

Working for the Matrix

Working in a place, typically government or large organization, that is highly dysfunctional where one has to choose between the blue pill and be happy, and the red pill and be miserable. It's a reference to the world created in the movie "The Matrix."

Dude, this place is so bad, it's like working for the matrix, evil powers run it from backstage. It pays the bills though.

working girl 

Euphemistic term for a prostitute, often preferred by the sex workers themselves.

She: I don't like being called a whore or a prostitute.
He: How would you describe yourself then?
She: I'm a working girl.

working cape race 

Used to describe someone who is too preoccupied with the task at hand to notice potential obstacles and hazards.

Comes from the response of Jack Phillips, senior wireless officer on the RMS Titanic, to a message from Cyril Evans, wireless officer for the SS Californian, which was meant to notify him of ice dangers in the waters the Titanic was passing through. Phillips -- who was busy relaying a backlog of messages from the as-yet-intact Titanic's passengers through the wireless center at Cape Race, Newfoundland -- responded to the loud interruption with the phrase, "Shut up; I'm working Cape Race!" The Titanic struck and iceberg and sank

Sue: "Does John not realize he's working himself into a corner?"
James: "No, he's working cape race."
