discouraged workers

In economics, discouraged workers is a person of legal employment age who is not actively seeking employment or who does not find employment after long-term unemployment. This is usually because an individual has given up looking or has had no success in finding a job, hence the term "discouraged". A discouraged worker is defined as a person not in the labor force who wants and is available for a job and who has looked for work sometime in the past 12 months (or since the end of his or her last job if a job was held within the past 12 months), but who is not currently looking because of real or perceived poor employment prospects.

The top five reasons for discouraged workers are the following:

1)The worker thinks no work is available.
2) The worker could not find work.
3) The worker lacks schooling or training.
4) The worker is viewed as too young or too old by the prospective employer.
5) The worker is the target of various types of discrimination.

government worker

An oxymoron. Government does not work, and no-one in government works for you.

As a government worker he spent his 35 hours a week in the office emailing friends, surfing the net and periodically pretending to be busy by interfering with some innocent citizen's life.

trump worker

A lazy idiot that pretends to be conservative but lacks a work ethic and is always slacking on the job. Especially true with government workers and hypocrites.

Jay votes Republican and says he is conservative but spends all day at work on Facebook looking at women just like a Trump worker. This is especially bad because he is the sexual harassment director.

worker drone

A "worker drone" is a man who accepts the social role of working full time for an income that he will give away to a woman or to support his family. His intention isn't necessarily altruistic, but in practice his actions become self-denying to the point of nihilism. This social role is strongly distinct from the "alpha male" and largely coincides with the "wage slave" and "beta provider." The term comes from the role of drones in a bee hive.

"Bill used to be a lot of fun until he married Cecelia; how he's just a worker drone."

"Promise you'll shoot me if I ever become a worker drone."
