   What work? Are you actually imagining that you are a gadfly? An   
   individual who "upsets the status quo by posing upsetting or novel   
   questions", to use one definition.   
      
   Unfortunately, with your limited vocabulary and imagination, that is   
   beyond your capabilities. A more accurate description is that you   
   emulate a dog turd on the road of life - occasionally one stops to   
   scrap you off.
