James: Why did you stop going to work?
Bob: I can't do it anymore. I have ergophobia.
James: Ergo-what?
Bob: Ergophobia. It's the fear of work or the workplace.
"ergophobia" erg•o•pho•bi•a (hm-fb-)noun. An intense and persistant fear of work. Fear of rapid change, fear of misinformation, of being passed over in promotional hierarchies, of backstabbing, of being fired, of interpersonal conflict, of sexual harassment, of failing in one's own or other's expectations, and in general, all the performance anxieties that go along with a job.
The phobia of the torture device that is used in training for the sport of "rowing" called the ergometer. In reality, ergometers are used to kill off the weak by genocide war lords.
Coach: Everybody set up your ergs for a 2k.
Rower: Sorry coach, I have a horrible case of ergophobia.
