The term Work is one of the most versatile words in the English language. It can either stand alone, or it can stand in connection with a prefix or a suffix. Carl Barks used the term endless times in graphic form in his comic book stories, and this page gives you a small selection of panels with explanatory texts added. But not necessarily explanations you would expect - that would be too dull and too uninteresting. No, the focus has been on deliberate misrepresentations of official terms resulting in surprising, unexpected, and somewhat baffling interpretations. You will in some instances have to think creatively in order to 'get the picture', but the aim has been to amuse you. Enjoy...
