This comment made me laugh. I have not seen the term "scab" since the late 1980s when there were a bunch of union strikes in my area. It is funny to see it applied to white collar (office) workers. Edit: I found this funny quote describing a scab from the early 1900s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_London#Diatribe_about_scabs_has_unknown_author https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_London#Diatribe_about_sca... > After God had finished the rattlesnake, the toad, and the vampire, he had some awful substance left with which he made a scab. A scab is a two-legged animal with a corkscrew soul, a water brain, a combination backbone of jelly and glue. Where others have hearts, he carries a tumor of rotten principles.
