The Worker is the GLA builder unit in Command and Conquer Generals, the 2003 real time strategy game from EA Pacific. Clicking him cycles through reluctant replies, and this peace line sits alongside famous phrases like I will work. Fans clipped the unit responses for forums, videos and soundboards because the character became the unexpected comic heart of the GLA faction. Decades later, players still quote the Worker whenever a game or a real task feels unfair, unwanted or hopelessly one sided in scale.
