An offer presented to an employee, usually by a manager, which is an unwanted task outside the scope of the employee's normal job function that will cause much confusion and anxiety and never reward him the recognition he deserves anyway.
"Ron, are you busy? I need your help with something...I have a problemtunity, if you will..."

Get the problemtunity mug.
The combination of the words "problem" and "opportunity", and a reminder that problems are opportunities.
Intuitively , the graduate student sensed that getting a new next door neighbor who smokes was a PROBLEMTUNITY, but wasn't sure why. In the next few days and weeks he realized that seeing how fucked-up his neighbor was, addicted to nicotine and unable to quit smoking, and that man's other problemtunities, let the graduate student see how blessed he was to be healthy and living correctly. The opportunity the problemtunity presented him with is a chance to spend more time studying, because to prevent his new neighbor's cigarette smoke from entering his apartment through its main door he puts a blanket at the base of the door, and to not need to stick parts of the blanket in the cracks on the side of the door more than once-a-day, he stays at home more, dedicates more time to study, and is getting better grades.
