workaholic

Basicly a person with no life, so they decide to try and fill the gap of having no life by working ALL THE TIME. This generally does not work and people who turn into workaholics are usually unmarried over-ambitious women and over-ambitious men
An example of a workaholic is someone staying in the workplace after their designated shift despite not having anything important to do.

Work

Something that separates you from the norm of lazy assholes. It is a task you must do that supposedly sticks to a fixed schedule when really it doesn't, and keeps you from communicating with any friends for long periods of time.

It also provides a solution to the awkwardness when someone stalking you wishes to call you, because you can't pick up your cell phone.
"Why'd you call me so much? I was at work."

"Well, did you wanna go to dinner tomorrow? We co--"

"I can't. I work. You know, that thing I was doing when you called me repeatedly and I didn't answer?"

Spade Work

Impressing a girl a few weeks prior to smashing her box. Preparatory work can include assisting her with something (i.e moving apartment), lending her books/DVD's or simply talking to her. Note: Doing the 'Spade Work' is different to 'chatting a girl up' (see: chatting up)because it is the continued premeditated effort with no return on investment expected for a number of days or possibly weeks.

Traditional Definition
Preparatory work necessary for a project or an activity.
Jonathan: "Morning Hubert, I saw you talking to Deborah earlier, it appears she is becoming increasingly comfortable around you by the day. Some mighty fine Spade Work if I do say so myself"

Hubert: "Your observations are correct Jonathan, I'm hoping Deborah lets me smash her box within the month."
