grunt work

Simple-minded, repetitive and some times redundant work.

Using a lawnmower can take the grunt work out of pruning the lawn. ;)

Work wife

The coworker of your preference that makes working the overnight shift tolerable. A funny, beautiful, witty, and entertaining female counterpart in the work place.

If it wasn’t for my work wife, I would quit working in this hell hole.

Work CC'd

When an employee that does not get along with another employee, deliberately copies all email correspondence to a boss just to get the employee in trouble; a form of work tattle-tailing.

Shit! Teresa just Work CC'd our boss on the blown development deal.

put in work

Applying personal initiative and responsibility throughout a duration of time, in order to accomplish either a short or long term goal.

Son: Dad i really want to own my own business one day and grow up to be a chulo just like you.

Dad: First off you can never be a true chulo, but if you go to college, study hard and put in work, one day you might own your own business.

College Works

A scam, a pyramid scheme, a lie. Through an intricate brainwashing process, the company tricks college students into providing them with free promotion and labor, and providing innocent homeowners with god awful paint jobs. Even worse, College Works has an entire corporate branch made just to go online and promote the program by posing as satisfied college students. They compose false testimonials and make fake accounts for online forums to argue with complainers and people who call them out. There are considerable chunks of their website devoted to refuting claims that their program is a scam.
Please Google search "College Works" and form your own opinion.

I got an internship with College Works Panting! There were so many rigorous interviews and training sessions, but they said they want to hire me as a manager!

a work in progress

Something that is being progressively modified, and improved over time. Most usually used to suggest that it's happening at a rate more slowly than desired.

"How is the renovation on your house coming along?"
"It's a work in progress."

"You've been spending a lot of time at the gym. How is your fitness coming along?"
"I'm a work in progress."
