Cow orker
A fortuitous typo for co-worker, widely used in Usenet, with perhaps a hint
that orking cows is illegal. This term was popularized by Scott Adams (the
creator of Dilbert) but already appears in the January 1996 version of the
scary devil monastery FAQ. There are plausible reports that it was in use on
Usenet as early as 1989.
