slacker
A slacker is a person who habitually avoids work or lacks work ethic. ==Origin== According to different sources, the term ''slacker'' dates back to about 1790 or 1898.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Online Etymology Dictionary, slack (adj.) )〕 It gained some recognition during the British Gezira Scheme in the early to mid 20th century, when Sudanese labourers protested their relative powerlessness by working lethargically, a form of protest known as "slacking".〔V. Bernal, "Colonial Moral Economy and the Discipline of Development: The Gezira Scheme and 'Modern' Sudan", ''Cultural Anthropology'', Vol. 12, 1997, 447–79〕〔Robert Sydney Smith, ''Warfare & Diplomacy in Pre-Colonial West Africa'' (University of Wisconsin Press 1989), 54-62〕
