What’s yours? There has to be some sort of outcome or purpose, otherwise what’s the point?
As a child of corporate America, my definition of work takes a few forms:

1) whatever my boss wants me to be doing is, by definition, work
2) even if it's not productive, it'll mean any time i need to get dressed and go to the office and take part in all the pleasantries with my fellow man that this requires.
3) if i'm not in my office, it requires me to be available to my staff or other colleagues, even if I'm on GOT all day. It usually means I need to keep my focus on keeping my status green, or available, on our chat system Teams. This means that I can't be golfing, hiking or laying on a beach. I could be driving and on phone calls, but some people don't define that as work, per se. Many see work as being chained to a computer or desk.

I didn't watch the video, but I did watch for about 10 seconds. I am taking a leap of faith that she achieved number 1 from my list, and she also quite certainly achieved the second part of my definition

That’s fair enough. We do define work differently. Regardless, my beef is primarily with ineffectiveness of government and their use of time.
 
I believe Mr. Trump is now legally obliged to hand over Rafael Cruz's gonads to Jon Stewart.


I actually got temp-banned from congress.gov the other day for paging through votes too fast (I was looking for sets of outlier 'nay' votes that enable telling good stories much like this one). Apparently, 'public record' doesn't mean what it once did.
 
With regard to Jon Stewart, a decent footballer back in the day.
That's a good read, does he still participate in the program as a (famous) alum?
