woodwalker 

A Man or Woman who puts their life on the line daily to keep the lights on so that others may enjoy the luxury of electricity. Also referred to as lineman. They climb wood poles with hooks and work hot secondary from the pole or hot primary from a hot board. Sometimes these Woodwalkers spend hours standing on hooks to restore power. They also work out of bucket trucks. These men and woman are the backbone of America. With out their dedication many people would die during winter and summer months. Food would have to be stored in a different manner, I wouldn't be typing on a computer charged by the electricity they provide, and you wouldn't be on level 58 on whatever dumb game you're playing.
Jack: "I can't believe the power went out after that storm"
Buddy: "Quit your bitchin!!! The woodwalkers are here away from their families to restore the power so your mom can charge her secret toy"

woodwork catholics 

Catholics who come out of the woodwork to attend mass only on Christmas, Easter, and one week into New Year's Resolutions. They're the reason the regularly participating catholics can't get a seat or a parking spot on those crowded holidays. They also pull out their catholic card when they want to have a wedding or baptism in a church because it makes for nice pictures.
We listened to Christmas mass in the doorway of the church because the place was overflowing with woodwork catholics.
