- Noun Work - work to produce a thing (an app, a website, a piece of software, a protest). The thing is the goal, but it's also pretty pointless on its own
- Verb Work - where the outcome is the strength of the relationships, the process of doing. It's usually less appreciated than noun work, and in capitalism is less rewarded. The emphasis is on the doing rather than the thing itself
- Glue Work - work that needs to happen to make a team more successfull. This is verb work to make the nouns better. In capitalism it often goes unrecognised; it will get you promoted into leadership if you can sell yourelf, or will keep you from being promoted because you aren't being seen to be doing noun work
